They were Americans and Marines. And this is their story. The Big War is the story of Alan Newcombe, the Boston society Harvard man; Danny Kantaylis, the natural-born leader; Jay O'Neill, the barroom scrapper. Anton Myrer does not glorify war; he does not flinch from describing what the actual experience of warfare was like for a desperate group of Marines trapped in some of the worst fighting conditions of the war.

While placed on the horror-fiction shelf for its intense psychological and visceral content, this is fundamentally a war novel rather than a supernatural or cosmic horror tale. However, for fans of historical fiction that delves into the terror of human conflict and the psychological breaking point, it remains a significant, albeit non-supernatural, entry in the broader spectrum of dark literature.
