    [synopsis] => Fires are spreading around the globe, the world is at its most precarious moment since 1939. NATO and the European Union are on the brink of war, tensions are rising near the shores of Taiwan. Europe and the United States are in disarray, while Russia and China are each waiting for the other to make the first direct move against the Western alliance system. The sequel to Bonfire, The Fury of the Tsar: Vicious Circle, shows why the American grand strategy of the last three decades is a failure, and why both neoconservative and liberal foreign policy are complete dead ends. It gives an unparalleled look into the mind of the Tsar, Vladimir Putin, as well as his fears, plans, and thirst for vengeance for what he sees as the humiliation of Russia. This is a story of Russian false flag operations across Europe and a story of nationalist conflicts. In the pages of Vicious Circle, history is alive. Author's personal note: The Fury of the Tsar: Vicious Circle was published in softcover in 2021, based on the Hungarian original of 2018. It describes the covert actions Russia could take to divide the European Union and NATO but does not describe the war against Ukraine. A coming Russian invasion of Ukraine, however, is mentioned several times in its pages, these were not edited out of the book. While Vicious Circle goes deep into Vladimir Putin's mind and explains some of his actions as rational, it in no way condones the blatant and open Russian aggression against Ukraine. Whatever grievances President Putin may have had, whether real or imagined, nevertheless under his leadership Russia launched an inexcusable war of conquest against a neighbor. This book is a warning that without understanding geopolitics and history, and without healing the ethnic fault lines of Central and Eastern Europe as well as the Balkans, Europe will remain an easy target for aggression. Terrorism spreads across Romania and Hungary: Two NATO allies! Who steps in? Vladimir Putin, master of geostrategic opportunity.
