Bomber Audiobook (Unabridged)

" I Think this is the best WW2 fiction written todate. "

" One of the first "serious" books I've read. (circa 1974). Its a really good book. The horrors of war come through and can send a chill down ones spine.Well written a lot of characters that one can empathize with. Learned a lot about the world of bombing and defending against bombers. "

" The author has taken an interesting approach by focussing on the lives of all the people who are involved or associated with in some way, with a WW2 Lancaster bomber during a 24 hour period. From the pilots and crew through to those who are being bombed, an incredible realism of life during those strained times is well portrayed. "

" It is probably the fact that my father was a Rear Gunner that the book affected me so much. it was truly horrifying and made me realise what my father had endured and why he said so often 'Don't b;lame the individual, blame the system.' The ending of the book is devastating. It shows the horror for both sides. "

" A highly detailed account of a WWII Bombing raid; a documentary style account of a fictional bombing raid, it explores the lives and sometimes deaths of characters in the planes and on the ground. "

" A very good book - read many years ago but still well-remembered. Well worth reading. "

" Taking place over a single day yet huge in scope, this is the story of a bomber raid and the lives it affects - British and German, military and civilian. "

" This book is the truth about war ... about a modern, sometimes almost anonymous war where the killer and killed may never even see each other. I recommend it. "

" Entertaining quick read. This is the second time I have read it. I bought this copy used for 1 cent and $3.99 shipping and it was sent from England and used at a library in the early 1980s. "

" Amazing research and detail! "

" An excellent book. There's a great bbc radio series on YouTube that's so much better once you've read the book. "

" A companion piece to his screenplay for the Battle Of Britain. A superb docudrama filled with incredibly detailed research. "

" Top notch read for warbird lovers. "

" Just about my favourite novel "

" June 31,1942?--WWII was the first technological war and the idea of "collateral-damage" came into being-- and acceptable, if not unfortunate victims. Deighton presents the face of war from the perspective of both sides of a mini-holocast. "

" Good read, a lot more than just the Bomber. It covers the random nature of conflict, right place, wrong place. There are a lot of characters but then there were 60 million dead participants so there were at least 10 times that involved. Another good Deighton book. "
