Covers what wasnt in my history courses

Well researched stories of what it was like for combats. The stories of Japanese Jugernaut early in war are eye opening. I cant wait for each new episode after binging earlier ones.

best in the series, loved listening to Murder

what are the best books in the series I couldn't put it down well actually yes I could because I was listening to it but listening to the horrible tortures and mutilations of the women as they were being raped from a woman's perspective I'm not going to lie to you, I was scared!

GOOD DETAIL ON WWII but needs to stick to subject

good detail but at this rate WWII will take 100 years. The narration is ok, but I wish he would keep his opinions outside of the subject of WWII TO HIMSELF. Lost me as a listener due to his asinine comments on "American health care sucks". He begs for financial help without disclosing, then makes asinine statements. Sounds like no insurance, and thats not his fault, it American health care's fault. I am done with him!
