The Edward Ware Thriller Series takes place mostly during World War 1 and World War 2. Malcolm Blair Robinson is the author of Hitler’s First Lady and often writes fiction about the same time period. I amquoting here from Malcolm Blair Robinson’s Goodreads Discussion on the EU Spectacle. It almost sounds like the beginnings of another war! It’s hard to imagine it, but who knows, especially if the US became super isolationistic once again. Here is the quote:

As for wanting to win, yes Germany is determined to win. So is America. Not so Britain. It really is not fussed. It only ever operates at about a third of its capacity. Until the chips are down. Then it mobilises very fast, shifts up two gears and becomes a formidable player. It is now beginning to pay attention. It knows something is going to happen but it is not sure what. But it is stirring, I can tell.

I think it has realized that rather than Germany becoming part of Europe, Europe is becoming part of Germany.But it is not yet sure what it thinks about that. History will depend on how it eventually resolves its view. It is still the only power in Europe which can challenge Germany.But it is not in the Euro and that for the moment is where the action is.
