Civil war erupts in Pakistan fueled by a movement known only as Kôz. The world watches helplessly as a nuclear power destabilizes from within, but when Americans are rounded up and positioned as human shields against outside interference, the United States sends its best.The 25th Marine Expeditionary Unit is the newest in battalion-strength special operations packing the hardest charging Marines and most advanced close air support in the world. There's no fighting force on Earth they can't handle, period. And command has made one thing clear: the hostages are coming home.However, what the Marines do not know is that the Pakistani rebels are mere pawns to a greater power-a power not of this world. Realms' Anchor is a mil-spec, high-fantasy roller coaster where the stakes are absolute, and the rules of engagement rescinded. The Marines must succeed as they enter the battle of the millennia, making first-contact with a violent presence that defies reason. Dig in, man the gun, and welcome to the fight.
