Kingdoms Fall – The Wieringen Proposal by Edward Parr

In the final volume of the Kingdoms Fall trilogy, Wilkins and Gresham are no longer trusted agents of the British Secret Intelligence Service after fleeing from Bolshevik Russia, and, following a crucial meeting at Passchendaele, strike out on their own – Gresham to France and Wilkins to Italy – just as the American Expeditionary Force arrives in Europe. However, victory may not be inevitable, and what does the future hold in store for the British empire, Germany, Austria, and the rest of Europe as Russia devolves into chaos? Wilkins considers changing sides, while Gresham wonders whether the Americans are ready to fight a modern war. Somehow, they must seek to put Europe back together.

An edition of KINGDOMS FALL was also produced as a single volume containing all three novels in the trilogy. This single volume edition was awarded Best First Novel and Best Historical Fiction Novel by Literary Classics who published the following review:

“In Edward Parr’s Kingdoms Fall, we are reminded that politics is a complex mixture of good and nefarious activities, and that war exists for many unique reasons.  Parr’s story begins with the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand and continues through to 1918 with the armistice.   If classroom history could be this good History would be the most popular subject.  Romance, murder, intrigue, fear, and uncertainty are woven into this compelling novel which is a fascinating read for history buffs as well as those who may find the subject of history to be a bit tiresome. 

This novel incorporates the well known Lawrence of Arabia, as well as fictionalized characters such as “OO’s” of the British Secret Service. Specific battle plans are dissected and revealed so non-historians can grasp the intricacies involved in even the simplest military endeavors. War in all its horror and gore is described in such detail one can nearly smell the cordite and mustard gas.”
