In this WWII horror novel, Moreland expands upon the Ahnenerbe-SS's studies on the occult and the Nazi's research on a secret weapon that would tip the war in their favor. Showing an eventual hybridization of what they have found, the Nazis do develop an impressive weapon. But, is it a weapon that they can control?
This book really fit the bill at the time I read it. It met my need for a WWII fix and a horror fix simultaneously. It brought back some old, comfortable themes while expanding on one or two ideas that I had seen touched upon in other novels.
A couple of the action scenes got a bit confusing. But, it was not enough to detract from the overall novel.
