    About this ebook

    Welcome to the world that almost was. In late 1983 NATO members carried out a command and control exercise. Soviet/Warsaw Pact enemy forces mobilized and got ready 'just in case' war erupted. This story assumes that war did start and tells it from a different angle - from the feline view. Join Able and Archer, two pussy cats on opposing sides, in their story of eating, paranoia and eventual Armageddon. Who will win and who will die? It captures the Cold War mindset, one that appears to have returned in early/mid 2014.

      Cut And Run

      Oct 9, 2023

      The earth shook violently as the enormous metal monster closed in. It was 100m away, 50, 20 … then it was on me. As I watched its giant steel tentacle, with its whirling, screaming blade, stretch down towards me, I was conscious less of the fear of a
