This is a subtle blend of fictional characters with true events and people from the Great War that serves to entertain and inform in equal measure.
The characters are well drawn and the plot is believable and fast moving. The author tells multiple stories that seem disconnected but all eventually come together in a cracking finale.
The level of research that has gone into the historical details is immense and I found that I was always learning something interesting as the story unfolded. The details on the real people that Petrol comes into contact with, however fleetingly, are fascinating and the added information on places and background make this a highly entertaining read.
The Historical Notes at the end of the book seek to add a further dimension that once again tells some of the untold stories of the war.
An excellent read and well worth 5 stars… (meer)
