The New York Times Bestselling Saga Continues with Book IV of The Corps Series by W.E.B. Griffin, Battleground. With Counterattack, Griffin continued his remarkable series of bestselling novels about the Marine Corps. "The Corps combines the best elements of military history and the war story," wrote Publishers Weekly, "the telling detail and political tangle of one mated to the energy and sweep of the other" -- military fiction at its finest.

And now Battleground -- Book IV -- continues the saga of The Corps with the story of one of the epic conflicts of the Pacific, the bloody months spanning Midway and Guadalcanal. From aviators to Raiders, officers to dog soldiers, no quarter is asked, and none given, as they battle for control of the Pacific.

|| SYNOPSIS || Daredevil pilot Charles Galloway takes command of a fighter squadron and finds his mettle severely tested...Lieutenant Joe Howard, scanning the skies as a member of the Coastwatchers, sends the message of his life...Officer candidate Private John Marston Moore volunteers for a mission so secret he cannot be told where it is -- or what he'll be doing...Colonel Frank Goettge leads a patrol into the heart of danger, at a terrible price...Ex-Marine Fleming Pickering sets sail from the perilous waters of Washington politics to find himself deep in harm's way...

From Washington, D.C., to the Bloody Solomons to Australia, this is the story of the Marine Corps, their loves and loyalties, of an elite fraternity united by courage and honor. Filled with crackling realism and adventure, rich characters, real heroes, and that special flair for the military heart and mind that has made Griffin's novels so popular, Battleground is a dramatic, captivating novel.
