From the author who collaborated with Tom Clancy on Red Storm Rising, this is the book that dares to show us the military hardware, global upheavals, and raw combat a second Korean War would unleash. How F-16s would blast across the 38th Parallel. How ultra-modern submarines would vie for the seas. And how two armies would turn the snowfields of Asia red with blood. A thundering geopolitical thriller of vast scope, this is Red Phoenix - and a new standard for military/political suspense fiction.

Red Phoenix is a phenomenally good book.
If you're not going to play an "apocalypse" using the T2k rules you could do a hell of a lot worse than run a scenario where the North has steamrolled into the south and the players are cut off and are fragments of a division that was destroyed piecemeal like the 5th in T2k. Yes, "help" is "eventually" coming - but how long can you hold out? Might be fun.
