A very interesting story! The premise is that China decides to use its massive population and resources to conquer the world, starting with Korea, Japan, India, etc. A complacent U.S. waits too long to start a military buildup, resulting in a Chinese invasion of the U.S. mainland in the Gulf of Mexico states (launched from cooperative Cuba) plus the West Coast (San Diego). Both the U.S. and China decline to use nuclear weapons (similar to the Korean War), so the war is fought with conventional weapons.

The book starts a bit slow, but once the invasion commences, the action is non-stop. Difficult to put the book down! A very good read.
