I am familiar with T. Young's more contemporary suspense/military action series (M. Parsons & S. Gold) & really like it. I like his books, & the fact that he always offers some educational aspect to the story, maybe telling some reality of the situation.......so I looked forward to seeing how he treated a WWII tale. True to his earlier form, Young's novel offers a vivid window into that era/time period. He does a great job of describing the actual machinery (planes, subs, tanks, guns) used during that time, & also the human aspects too. He tells a great story that compels you to read on & find out where this will end, & you don't have to be a military history buff to enjoy & understand it. As with his other books, this one too....the Author's Note, Historical Notes & Acknowledgments at the end offer a lot of great information, & are well worth reading!
I received an e-ARC of this book from Kensington Books via NetGalley, after offering to read it & post my own honest & fair review.
Tom Young has had me since The Renegades and I have eagerly read all of his books I could get my hands on. If you enjoy taut military fiction you cant go wrong with one of Mr. Youngs books,
His newest, Silver Wings, Iron Cross, takes place during WW2 with an American pilot and a German U Boat officer thrown together in rather novel fashion (no spoilers, sorry!) They are forced to work together in order to survive the chaos of a war-torn Europe.
