It’s a sci-fi action crossover about a group of present-day marines who disappear in the Bermuda Triangle and find themselves stranded in 1776.

Rhonda liked Blue Raven's review of Vril: The Power of the Coming Race:
Vril by Edward Bulwer-Lytton
"I have given this book one star, although it deserves less. I first heard of this book as one of the books that was very popular with the Nazis, which piqued my curiosity. What sort of book would appeal to the Nazis? The kind that extols the virtues " Read more of this review »
