Holy Smoke Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is a work of startling innovation. Stylistically, it towers above the novels of most mortals.

Ray Parkin's Wartime Trilogy: Out of the Smoke; Into the Smother; The Sword and the Blossom Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I read these books many years ago and found them moving, perhaps 'The Sword and the Blossom' the most moving.
