Invitation to Valhalla

Rating:
Summary: A pleasure
Review: This is the best book I have read in a long time. All the things I crave in a good book were here - excitement, suspense, a sense of history. I was taken back to a time about which little has been written, the fight going on at the homefront during WWII. I didn't want it to end. Bravo, and thank you, Mr. Whicker.

Summary: Who is this guy?
Review: What a pleasant surprise. I saved this book for one of my annual seaside vacation reading selections and lost a whole day of sun and sand. I couldn't put this book down, and I remember little about that day-and-half except the disappointment that this novel ended. Mr. Whicker has crafted an absorbing thriller that stands up well to the best I've read in a long while. The characters are well fleshed out, the plot intriguing and unique, and the pace is just about perfect. There are no doldrums here. I sincerely hope the rest of the world discovers this gem of a novel soon.
