It was an interesting perspective of WWII that was not taught in school. The writing and conversations were very basic and made it tough to want to continue.

Although much of this story has been debunked, it was still well written. However, I found it hard to buy in to these characters. Most of the story seemed to be quite unbelievable - and I’m not talking about the history of it. Just the amount of things and timings don’t make sense that one person witnessed. Idk. I just couldn’t connect as much as I usually do with WWII books.

Also, please read the articles about this book. There are some crazy things of note, like:
“That Mark Sullivan used a picture of Franco Isman as Mimo Lello.”
“The German general that Pino Lella served as a chauffeur was not Hans Leyers, but General Kaufmann.”

4.75 stars. I am just obsessed with historical fiction, especially those written about WWII. This book was so different as it was written from actual real life events that were told to the author by the main character himself.
