WW2 novels Options

[Shifty]

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

War of the Rats was an awesome read. I put it into my top 10 WWII books.
I recently read Amboses' - Citezen Soldier. I thought it was a better read than Flags of Our Fathers.

A few month ago I read "The End of the Imperial Japanese Navy" by Masanori Ito. He was high ranking officer in the Jap Navy. He originally wrote it in 1952 and it was translated and printed in 1965. It allows you to see the complete thinking, methodology, social classes and detailed size and power of their Navy. An incredibly good book with a great story telling from the build up of war, Pearl Harbor thru to VJ day.
Good luck finding it.

I'll post a few more of my top 10 later.
