Mitsuru ToyamaTakaba OsamuMarquis OkumaAdmiral TogoColonel Kingoro HashimotoHideki Tojo

Born in Kyushu and shaped by a teacher who wielded a sword as fiercely as any samurai, Mitsuru Toyama rose from wandering laborer to the mastermind behind the Black Dragon Society—a shadowy organization of assassins and fanatics that has pulled Japan's strings for half a century. Through intimidation, violence, and the ruthless placement of his disciples in positions of power, Toyama engineered wars and shaped a nation's destiny, all building toward a moment that would shake the world. This story traces the rise of history's most dangerous puppet master and the network of loyal agents, including Colonel Kingoro Hashimoto and Hideki Tojo, who would carry out his ambitions.

Carlson's Raiders

PFC Jim Hogan volunteers for Lt. Col. Carlson's elite Marine Raider Battalion, a tough amphibious unit training in scientific warfare alongside fellow specialists—including an unexpected recruit in Major James Roosevelt, the President's son. When Carlson's Raiders storm Makin Island ahead of dawn, they discover the Japanese garrison is very much awake, and what begins as a surprise assault becomes a brutal trial by fire as the Raiders fight across the island, supported by demolition crews and naval gunfire. It's a raw, firsthand account of the Marines' costly victory and the price of amphibious warfare in the Pacific.
