The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States is an exciting piece of "speculative fiction." The novel posits that there was a nuclear attack against the US on March 21, 2020 by North Korea, and that a national bipartisan commission was created to investigate what and how it happened. It's pretty scary stuff.

Este libro es un clásico de la literatura mundial y posee el mérito histórico de haber iniciado la novela sobre la Revolución Mexicana de 1910; la obra muestra desde dentro las fuerzas de lo que entonces se llamó "la bola": los desposeídos levantados para la revuelta. La novela arranca con el grupo armado de Juchipila, un poblado al sur de Zacatecas, y cierra, como epílogo de la narración y un símil de la suerte misma de la Revolución, cuando la ciudad es tomada por las tropas carrancistas.

Before he was considered a CIA superagent, before he was thought of as a terrorist's worst nightmare, and before he was both loathed and admired by the politicians on Capitol Hill, Mitch Rapp was a gifted college athlete without a care in the world...and then tragedy struck.
