Synopsis
[This is the Audiobook CD Library Edition in vinyl case.]
The counterinsurgency for freedom is on, and defeat is not an option.
It's six against six million in a brilliantly waged near-future war for nothing less than liberty and justice for all. The totalitarian East has triumphed in a massive invasion, and the United States has fallen to a dictatorial superpower bent on total domination. That power is consolidating its grip through concentration camps, police state tactics, and a total monopoly upon the very thoughts of the conquered populace. A tiny enclave of scientists and soldiers survives, unbeknownst to America s new rulers. It's six against six million but those six happen to include a scientific genius, a master of subterfuge and disguise who learned his trade as a lawyer-turned-hobo, and a tough-minded commander who knows how to get the best out of his ragtag assortment of American discontents, wily operators, and geniuses. It's going to take technological savvy and a propaganda campaign that would leave Madison Avenue aghast, but the US will rise again.

Stage actor and award-winning narrator Tom Weiner provides an engaging reading, bringing to life each character as well as the ragtag counterinsurgency fighting for survival. This will be welcomed by Heinlein's many fans and sf lovers in general.
