Remembrance Day: The Trilogy

From www.sanhorizons.com The Trilogy page  


Remembrance Day: The Trilogy

This is the page dedicated to The Trilogy, comprising all three previously published novels on Amazon. This trilogy brings together the whole Remembrance Day series and thus wraps up the entire story of war veteran Georges Laeken-Duvalier's dramatic and intense World War Two and post-war experiences.
The Trilogy that unites all three Remembrance Day novels.
The Trilogy that unites all three Remembrance Day novels.
The three novels, described on the parent page to this, are Caught in a WhirlwindBehind Enemy Lines and Pax Julia. Together they not only tell Duvalier's intense personal war time experience but also a tragic chapter in Europe's dramatic history. By bringing the three novels together into one single book, I finally achieve what I originally intended with these novels: tell a coherent story of a human being caught in the middle of a storm no one was able to foresee or warn him about. What then follows is of course highly specific to the key character, Duvalier, and the close circle of friends and comrades of arms around him. What also unfolds, however, is the slow breakdown of the old European world and the creation of another, at least in the West, more dynamic world: one divided and more uncertain due to the increasingly threatening Cold War in which Duvalier and some of his friends try to manoeuvre in order to reconstruct what they had originally fought for: to gain a lasting peace and create a more just world.
I hope readers will enjoy and appreciate The Trilogy when they find all three stories, each dealing with three different periods of the war and its aftermath, finally united in one single volume. You can read about each novel on the Remembrance Day page. Meanwhile, I wish you all good luck with your reading.
