The War After Armageddon
“CARMEL RIDGES, EMIRATE OF AL-QUDS AND DAMASKUS Tracers streaked down the alley, but the shooting inside the house stopped. Sergeant Ricky Garcia heard the snap of a magazine going home.
“Ground floor clear.” Freytag’s voice. Hoarse.
“Coming in,” Garcia shouted.

“Clear one,” Freytag yelled. Boots thumped overhead. “Go, go, go.”
“Cease fire!” Kovack yelled. As if deafened and unable to hear himself. “There’s women—”
The blast upstairs blew Garcia back through the front door. His rifle let off a round as he landed, bucking, with the muzzle inches from his eyes.MoreLess
