Nokose,

I suspect that the book is not yet available. On the amazon.co.uk website its publication date is July 15, 2013, and it is noted as "Temporarily Out of Stock". But Amazon seems to use that phrase when they are well past publication date and have not received the book. Amazon.com shows my copy as arriving Sept 6 to 11. And Helion's page for the book shows it as not yet available, but published in August. As far as Helion is concerned, when I have it in my hand I will believe it. They originally announced Stalin's Falcons Resurgent by Mark O'Neill for publication in December 2011; their website now shows it for January 15, 2014.

I suspect this book is a translation of Igor Seidov's Sovetskie Asy Koreiskoi Voini, which is 451 pages, using a fairly small font. It wouldn't take much of an increase in point size to get to the 712 pages noted on the Helion website. And if Stuart Britton, the translator and editor, added much as editor the 712 pages is within reason. Still rather big. But when it is in my hands I will believe it has been published.

Seidov's earlier book was titled, and translated (by Hal Fischer) as Red Devils On the 38th Parallel. This was a considerably smaller book, 325 pages in Russian, 374 in English.

Enjoy!

Frank.
