Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great fast paced page turner taht has it all.This is a great start to what i hope will be long series. Jack Tanner is that breed to hero that so many fail to get on to a page in a believeable form but James manages with style. The plot has more twists than a rife barrel never disspointing. The description of his action sequences are brillent and brings to life the real cahos of battle. His obvious prowess in history shows at every turn. I really liked this and cannot recommend it highly eneough. Rating: - A very good boys own type adventureI have long wished that there was a WW2 equivilant to the Sharpe series and I think this comes pretty close. It has a good fast paced action story and James Holland has obviously well researched the period. For people interested in WW2 it makes a nice alternative to the many non-fiction books on the period. Overall I found this book a great read and hope that this is the start of a long running series. Rating:  - A good old fashioned WW2 actionerAn attempt at high action fiction from a writer of history and he gives us a solid and enjoyable actioner that we don't see much of nowdays. Almost a WW2 Sharpe, here we see Sgt Jack Tanner in Norway, on the run from German troops who want the secret he does not know he is protecting. This is fun with a blend of Sharpe and Alistair McLean's less complex war novels. Enjoyable and a promising start to what I hope is a long running series. |
