Just wondered what the response was to these two books that appeared in the 1980s?
Basic outline: first book written in the early 1980s, set in 1987 and recounting a NATO-SOVIET war in August 1985. It culminates in the USSR nuking Birmingham, England; the UK and USA nuking Kiev; the collapse of the Soviet Union and satellite nations.
Format took the form of a narrative account of opposing forces, events leading up to and during the war, interspersed with hypothetical official documents and brief storylines concerned key points in the campaign.
The second volume examines in greater detail issues referred to in the original - doubtless the publishers wanted to cash-in on previous success - and provides alternative ending of WW3 in which NATO loses.
It was apparently a best-selling work.
