La niebla se levanta sobre las colinas de Gettysburg. Los dos ejércitos preparan sus líneas, listos para entablar la batalla crucial que cambió el curso de la guerra. El año es 1863, mes de julio. Durante tres años la guerra ha enfrentado el norte con el sur, en una lucha desigual para decidir el destino de los Estados Unidos. El general Robert E. Lee ha entrado con el ejército confederado en pleno corazón del territorio enemigo, en un audaz intento de obtener una victoria decisiva. El ejército de la Unión se prepara para recibirle, desesperado tras una serie de derrotas. El choque se producirá en Gettysburg y pasará a la historia como la batalla que decidió la Guerra de Secesión.

Con más de tres millones de ejemplares vendidos, Ángeles asesinos es, sin duda, la novela bélica por excelencia. Ganadora del premio Pulitzer y adaptada a la gran pantalla en la película Gettysburg, protagonizada por Martin Sheen y Jeff Daniels, la novela de Michael Shaara es una obra profundamente humana y conmovedora, un libro único e inolvidable que nos hace vivir los sueños y los sufrimientos de los participantes en la más sangrienta batalla de la Guerra de Secesión.

«Mi novela histórica favorita... Una recreación soberbia de la batalla de Gettysburg, pero su importancia reside realmente en su capacidad de plasmar el motivo y el significado de la guerra» (James M. McPherson, autor de Battle Cry of Freedom).

«La novela bélica más realista que he leído nunca» (General H. Norman Schwarzkopf)
