January 1945: As Hitler's Germany and Tojo's Japan collapse, General George Marshall dies unexpectedly days before the critical Yalta Conference. His successor as US Army Chief of Staff, General Douglas MacArthur, flies halfway around the world to butt heads with Josef Stalin and change history. When MacArthur relieves General Dwight D. Eisenhower from command in Europe, the Anglo-Allied advance devolves into a free-for-all as competing armies race for Berlin, and the changes echo across the globe.

Where is MacArthur?
Revisado: 01-30-18
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Yes there is. I would make General MacArthur a major character in this book. He is not. MacArthur is given a few brief cameo appearances and then fades into the background as the various story lines revolving around sundry other characters unfold.
I bought this book, based upon the title, believing that it would be a book about General MacArthur. So far, it is not. Perhaps in the subsequent volumes in the series he will play a more prominent role; but he is all but absent in this volume.
Was MacArthur's Luck, Part One: Laying the Bet worth the listening time?
This is a good war novel, nicely performed by Robert Thaler, and worth listening to. My only real complaint is that General MacArthur was given such a de minimis role in the book.
