About this audiobook
"Ungentlemanly Warfare is a captivating historical thriller about a pivotal and dramatic event from the second world war.
A soldier and a spy, an officer but not quite a gentleman, Captain Harry Walsh is SOE's secret weapon. Loathed by his own commanding officer, haunted by the death of his closest friend and trapped in a loveless marriage, Harry Walsh is close to burn out when he is ordered to assassinate the man behind the ME 163 Komet, Hitler's miracle jet fighter. If Walsh fails, there is no prospect of allied victory in Europe. Harry Walsh is ruthless, unorthodox and ungentlemanly. He is about to wreak havoc...
Praise for the Author: “'Linskey delivers a flawless feel for time and place, snappy down to earth dialect dialogue mixed in with unrelenting violence and pace'."" THE TIMES"

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5To start with I enjoyed the book but then I got irritated by the stupid French voices the narrator put on, shouting and talking fast. I lost interest because of this as I had to concentrate so hard to keep up with the storyline. In the end I gave up
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Definition of a page-turner. This audiobook has it all - the plot is well written and interesting, characters actually sound and act like real human beings, and narrator did a great job, too. The only thing I regret is not listening to this book sooner.
