The Dragon versus the Koala

Author: Darren Stein
SKU: 9798215278321

The Dragon versus the Koala is a short story that provides a speculative snapshot of a war between the People’s Republic of China and Australia. While the United States fights for its own life, Australia is left alone across a vast ocean in which its greatest ally is unable to come to its defense.

Description

It did not start with a conventional attack. There were no shells or missiles to herald the start of hostilities. Instead, it began with a match; a conflagration that turned Australia’s natural environment against it in a destructive wave that brought it to its knees.With its greatest ally fighting for its life, Australia was abandoned to fend for itself at the bottom end of the world. Facing a foe much larger than itself, they watched the Chinese military pick apart its defenses and drive it towards inevitable surrender.
