Book Description:

In the dark days after the events in the book Gust Front, but before the primary invasion, the Chancellor of Germany faces a critical decision. Over the years, with military cutbacks, the store of experienced military personnel had simply dwindled. After the destruction of Northern Virginia, he realized that it was necessary to tap the one group he had sworn never, ever, to recall: the few remaining survivors of the Waffen SS. Watch On the Rhine is perhaps the most unbiased, and brutal, look at the inner workings of the Waffen SS in history. Meticulously researched, it explores all that was good, and evil, about the most infamous military force in history using the backdrop of the Posleen invasion as a canvas.

This was a good return to the way the first couple of books in this series portrayed the war between Earth and it's "allies" with the Posleen. Interesting moral dilemmas for German politicians when dealing with Nazis. Well paced and a good read. A little more serious than some of the earlier books in dealing with the reinstatement of Nazi soldiers to defend Germany but well handled.

ringo and his co author are a bit right-wing for my tastes, but definitely a good, entertaining read, somewhere in the posleen war series
