    A Commando comic without the pictures
  

*by M***G on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2011*

Billed as "Sharpe for WWII meets Commando comics" that description is completely correct.  This is the third in the Jack Tanner series, and really its more of the same: if you liked the previous two books (The Odin Mission and Darkest Hour) then you'll like this.  If military fiction is not your thing, then you won't - there is not a lot of gripping characterisation going on here, more struggle for survival with extra explosives.Blood of Honour is the 1941 Battle of Crete, and is historically accurate in details large and small (as you'd expect from a historian who also writes novels).  There is a short note at the end of the book about the real campaign and how it played out: it really is a bit of a mystery how Crete fell to the Nazis.Tanner here is part of the British army dug in at Heraklion, fending off the assault by German paratroopers, while making friends and enemies (not necessarily in that order) with the locals and then retreating by RN Destroyer, pleasure yacht, foot and submarine.  Holland does a good job of capturing the fatigue and disappointment of retreat after retreat for the British Army, but then again, you are never in any doubt about how it will all end: Tanner is never in any real danger, in the sense it is always clear he is our hero, for all he is drawn in the odd shade of grey.I haven't read Sharpe (yet) so can't speak how it compares in a literary sense, but this is readable, accurate and, if you want suspense, why read military historical fiction at all - the result has generally been known for a fair while!  Holland is probably a better historian than fictioneer, yet one can do worse than read Blood of Honour.

    Blood of Honour
  

*by A***I on Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2012*

I read this as i was heading to Crete. It gave a great background to what the kiwis experienced fighting there. A good story of the defense by the partisans and the allies. Not so sure about blaming Freyburg for the great loss - making decisions in that sort of situation woildnt be that clear.
