Rescue Run

WWII Historical Fiction *Action* Book. *With A Bibliography*! Yes, you read that right. Not only do we get a kick ass action/ adventure tale set during WWII, but this one is so accurate that it actually has a bibliography longer than some nonfiction books I've read recently!

The tale itself, while technically a sequel, has enough in the story here to provide the necessary context to understanding this tale itself... *and* has a summary of book 1 at the back of the book, just before the bibliography, as well, for those that need it laid out a bit more explicitly and don't mind being completely spoiled on Book 1. For those that would rather read Book 1 first... I haven't read it, but if it is anything like this one you're in for an awesome time and apparently you'll be ready for this one pretty well as soon as you finish that one.

And what a tale it is! Yes, if you're looking for *hyper* realism... you're going to be disappointed. There are *several* times where in real life.... yeah, dead or in prison or in prison and then dead. But you don't (shouldn't) read action/ adventure tales for that level of realism, and the level of realism brought more generally, with the various units and locations and tech and such is on par with the best WWII era historical fiction tales I've come across.

With the running problem in booklandia of needing more male readers and with the "understanding" that once a male hits 40 he either becomes intently focused on WWII or on grilling... for those who, like me, went the WWII route (though admittedly I did it long before 40 due to both of my grandfathers serving in it), this book is going to be one those types of guys are truly going to enjoy.

But truly, if you're into action tales and/ or historical fiction tales set in WWII, you too are going to find a lot to enjoy here, and I really do think this one will be something you'll want to read as it brings a style not commonly seen much (if at all) anymore, and one which I believe needs to be celebrated just as much as the more women's fiction oriented tales of the period. (Which are awesome in their own right, to be clear... but they're also not this particular type of tale either, and I believe there is more than enough space on the digital shelves for both types of stories. :) )

Very much recommended.
