Summary
Ungentlemanly Warfare is a captivating historical thriller about a pivotal and dramatic event from the Second World War.
A soldier and a spy, an officer but not quite a gentleman, Captain Harry Walsh is SOE's secret weapon. Loathed by his own commanding officer, haunted by the death of his closest friend and trapped in a loveless marriage, Harry Walsh is close to burnout when he is ordered to assassinate the man behind the ME 163 Komet, Hitler's miracle jet fighter. If Walsh fails, there is no prospect of Allied victory in Europe. Harry Walsh is ruthless, unorthodox and ungentlemanly. He is about to wreak havoc....

Outstanding
This appeared in the plus catalogue and I thought let’s give it a go. Glad I did it was great. Historically relevant and in the same calibre of story and narration as the Len Deighton books venturing on Harry Palmer. Genuinely good and I recommend it.
Hussar!

Not bad.
The gruff voice didn’t suit a 30 something agent but overall the narrator was good. The story was ok but not startling.

Harmless Little Story
Well narrated , variety of entertaining accents - apart from female love interest who came across as a camp male. Entertainingly portrayed characters, especially if you like 'allo 'allo.

excellent
I have never read a Howard Linksey book before but I will be after this! I was hooked from the start! The story flowed and was very interesting, the characters were believable and the narrator read it well. I was sorry it when it ended!

A bit ‘Allo Allo, but still good!
A well written and entertaining spy story, the hero is believable and well played, the only irritation is the narrators over ze top Allo Allo German accents, the French a bit less so. Still enjoy folks.

Keeble master class in narration
I normally pick a book to help me fall asleep to but Keeble has got me so invested into this gripping story I’m going to be tired tomorrow

An excellent story, brilliantly written and superbly read
So pleased I selected this book. Always enjoy Keeble’s reading. Characters created by Linskey are utterly believable and so carefully brought to life off the page and into my ears.

Amazing narration of a well paced story.
Vivid wartime events. Maybe I would have liked to get to know the characters a bit more but would the story then have been too long? Anyway, suffice to say I thoroughly enjoyed it which is the main reason for reading a fiction book! Will be on the lookout for more from both author and narrator.

Great SOE story, slightly let down.
Pacy and well researched. Feels authentic, good characters if you like spy’s and action hero type stuff. For the most part the book works. The sections that didn’t for me where the romance/sex sections. It was all a bit obvious and felt shoe horned in as though the author had decided need to get a bit of sex and love interest into the story so they are more likely to make it into a film. If that had been handled a little more subtly and convincingly it would have made a good book into a really good book. Still a fine listen. May try others by the author. Jonathan Keeble is a very accomplished voice actor so will definitely try more of his work too.
