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....

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.

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!

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.

Fantastic WW2 novel based on true events. Pure excellence
Fantastic story, well written and expertly narrated as always by Jonathan Kemble. Highly recommend. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will look out for other titles from this author.

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.

'Allo Allo'
Narrator reminiscent of Michael Jayston (RIP) who narrated the John Le Carre Spy books. 2nd go at listening to this book, and it's much better 2nd time round. All a bit 'Allo Allo' in places, written by an American I would guess by the use of city blocks and other non English venacular and has not stayed in a French hotel where even now the privy and bidet would be behind a curtain in the room. The author has not researched war time privies, most had wooden bench seats, sometimes with double apertures to the trench below. Modern flush toilets were not a thing until at least the early 1960s.
ENJOYED IT
