A little topic to share your favourite WW2 authors.
I've recently started reading David L Robbins novels and am really enjoying them. War of the Rats was the book that Enemy at the Gates was based on - very good read. Just started Last Citadel which is about the battle of Kursk. Highly recommend checking his books out. Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers is another must-read too. Got the DVD set of the TV series and loved it but the book is 10x better. Non-fiction but it's written so well it almost reads like fiction. Feel free to share your faves - I'm always on the lookout for a good WW2 read -------------------- ![]() |

Shifty have you ever checked out anything by Athony Beevor he wrote Starlingrad 1942 and Fall of Berlin 1945.Both books are awesome best books I have I must have read each one 5 or 6 times.But you got to read Starlingrad then Berllin.I also tell everyone to check out Down Fall its a german made movie about the last days in Hitlers bunker won all kinds of awards.I dont think its better than Band of Brothers but I do think its alot better then pvt ryan.Should tell you that down fall is in german with english subs wich keeps it real no crapping english voice overs.
