| Plot Summary of World War III |
|---|
"In a Mainland China, a motley band of allies (including Sarge, a young writer, a Greek chef, a dancer, a pleasure girl, a German former Nazi, and a Nissei old-time radio nut)trapped behind enemy lines with a Chinese prisone eventually find themselves in a fort defending against the Chinese hoerdes. Meanwhile, a squad of trained apes from the US is out for revenge...a very creative work combining pathos with parody, done in a variety of literary styles."
Zorikh Lequidre, Resident Scholar
