It feels as though World War I could come to an end any day now, and the Canadian unit, the Bears and Eagles, who call themselves simply, The Regiment, are chomping at the bit to get overseas and do their part.
Russia is in the midst of postrevolutionary chaos and descending into civil war. The Turks and Germans are still invading Palestine. And the German legions have Europe in complete disarray. Finally, after much political reluctance, Canada deploys The Regiment to Palestine to support the allied efforts there. This group of brave soldiers, led by John, a newly promoted brigadier general, now has the chance to prove themselves in action.
Eagles Talon, the third volume in the Bears and Eagles series, continues to deliver the high-stakes action, intrigue, and romance that only the theater of war can produce. Told from a uniquely Canadian perspective, it highlights war contributions by numerous countries that historians widely overlook. It is a tour through a fearful and displaced world, where anything can, and does, happen.
Head into the Great War with The Regiment, and follow their heroics all the way to a final invasion of Germany itself.
