The terrible months between the arrival of the Red Army on German soil and the final collapse of Hitler's regime were like no other in the Second World War. The Soviet Army's intent to take revenge for the horror that the Nazis had wreaked on their people produced a conflict of implacable brutality in which millions perished.
From the great battles that marked the Soviet conquest of East and West Prussia to the final surrender in the Vistula estuary, this book recounts in chilling detail the desperate struggle of soldiers and civilians alike. These brutal campaigns are brought vividly to life by a combination of previously unseen testimony and astute strategic analysis recognizing a conflict of unprecedented horror and suffering.

The German atrocities committed when invading Poland and then Russia in 1939 were incomprehensible. And the bitterness was there when the Red Army regrouped and invaded Prussia in 1944, with the goal being the invasion of Berlin. Russian atrocities committed on Germans couldn't have been worse. There are no words for the horrors. And Buttar never glosses over that. It's just mostly driven by the Prussian viewpoint. And with this, it is electrifying. But you have to pay very close attention as to not miss details. I had to rewind too many times to count. There is that much detail.
Nigel Patterson's narration is spot on perfect. This could not be better.

Subject matter was interesting but as all the other eastern front books, heart breaking.
Compared to many of Prit’s other books this one was HEAVILY focused on the Germany point of view due to the location that the location this takes place.
Overall - Fantastic book if you’re a fan of heavily in depth books like this.
Great book on a little know part of World War 2

other than a bit hollow sounding and slightly high pitched, the narration is good.
Content:
detailed and well explained. This is an especially important listen for those unfamiliar with the gargantuan, horrific battles fought in northeastern Germany during the last year of ww2.
Be advised that the horrors visited upon German citizens grim, very grim. Of course, the Germans did worse throughout the war, but still.......
Conclusion:
recommended—highly recommended
Informative and interesting
