Summary: A New Kind of War
Review: Anthony Price's books usually contain a wealth of detail. This detail is combined with plot twists and turns that are often not fully explained. This forces the reader to think a bit, but can be off-putting as well. Price's hero/anti-hero, David Audley, is too smart by half, but I found the Audley character interesting in the extreme. Price's descriptions of pieces of the Anglo/Greek Campaign in a New Kind of War provided me useful insight into that star-crossed bit of history.

Summary: A New Kind Of Dull
Review: I think the only thing more boring then the periods of time the author describes in the book is the actual book. After the persistent call of a friend of mind to try another book from this author I did, or at least 125 pages of it. This is book was supposed to be a thriller it must have come after I stopped reading, and if it is a character study then the people the author created are the single most dull group out there. If you are a fan of this author maybe you can see the charm in the book, but if you are looking for a good read -keep moving.
