"WINNER - Gold Book Award, Literary Titan ★★★★★ ""War of The Sparrows is an emotionally-charged historical fiction novel. This stirring book by Matt Strempel narrates events of Tobruk during the second World War in an engaging and emotionally resonant manner. An event not as well known by many people but just as bloody and gruesome as famous dates such as D-Day. The writing is beautiful, perfectly portraying PTSD and showing flashbacks of the events that caused it. Not only is the book quick-paced and entertaining to read but in a way it's very educational on the events described. Perfect for fans of historical fiction and action/suspense. An amazing storyline, educational content, historically accurate events, and real and relatable characters all combine to make War of The Sparrows a story that is dramatic and engrossing."" - Literary Titan --- 4 out of 4 - OnlineBookClub.org ""What I enjoyed the most about this book was its emotional resonance. It exposed me to war atrocities by touching on my emotions and sentimentality with so much nuance. War tears families apart and turns men into killing machines. Soldiers either die on the battlefield or survive with scars beyond physical relief. The families back home live in fear as they pray for their soldiers to come home alive. I can't think of anything to dislike. I would recommend this to anyone who might be into historical fiction that is more on drama and mystery. Although the novel is about war, the action scenes aren't excessive. It might not be suitable for readers who are looking for such works. Overall, I find this book ingenious. The characters are realistic, and the narrative style is remarkable. I couldn't rate this book any less than 4 out of 4 stars."" - OnlineBookClub.org"
