Goebbels uses an iron fist of fear to keep his allies and the citizens of his empire under his control. Increasing tensions with the United States has put Grand Admiral Von Hilmeir in a tough spot as he prepares for a large naval confrontation with his mentor and friend Grand Admiral Adam Sparrow. After Adam and Von Hilmeir's encounter at sea, Emperor Goebbels changes his tactics to the use of ballistic missile attacks on the American people. With both nations once again in a full-blown World War threatening to destroy the planet, a surprise betrayal changes the course of the war. After the betrayal Adam heads off on his own personal mission to take his revenge on the man who ordered his brother's assassination and the attempt on his own life. Klaus Berlitz believes the only hope for the future is to stop Aaron and Adam Sparrow from arriving in 1937 and prevent their interference, thus restoring the original timeline. After an attempt to transport an agent to 1937 to stop the Sparrow brothers fails, due to a temporal accident, President Meier decides the only option is to send Grand Admiral Adam Sparrow once again into the past. Caught between his original mission and a new one to restore the timeline, Adam Sparrow has to decide the best way to prevent the disastrous future he just came from when he comes face to face with his brother and his younger self.

Antelope and porcupines in Africa. Feral cats and wild goats in Australia. Deer, pheasants, and rabbits in the United States and Europe. These are just a few of the world’s game animals, or creatures hunted for food. Game has been central to the development of humanity and forms a core part of cultures—and meat industries—from the Amazon to the Arctic. But despite the ubiquity of its consumption, it has never been the subject of a culinary overview. Paula Young Lee rectifies this oversight in Game, describing the fascinating history of a food so diverse it ranges from luxury good to staple of the poor. Describing how animals from quail and oryx to dormice were once so avidly pursued that they became semi-domesticated, Lee traces the rise and fall in the prevalence of hunting some animals, as well as illustrating how dishes like bear paws, reindeer pâté, and lark pie have seen their popularity come and go. She provides insight into the politically charged arena of hunting laws and discusses the customs and difficulties in hunting game for food, while offering up fun facts—such as how venison was once so coveted that cookbooks gave instructions for disguising beef as a counterfeit. Featuring unusual recipes for many little-eaten animals and cuts of meat, Game will be gobbled up by readers alongside a steaming bowl of rabbit stew.
