Title: Lamb, a writer who can kill a exciting subject
Review: Got about half way through and tossed it. Lamb writes like an 19th Century British hack writer. All things have the same level of importance. Whether its his uniform, a sand storm, attacking the Italians, or someone killed in action. It just drones on and on and at the same level. No excitement and no disappointment, just a flat brainwave of a book. He makes things up as he goes along: Red swastikas on Ju 87s, German invasion of Bulgaria forcing Bulgarian pilots to flee. If he cannot get the basics correct, how can one trust anything else he writes.I love the subject matter, WW-2 and the Swordfish, but Lamb engages in writing that has the effect of a story intended to put kids to sleep.
