Who do you think the title refers to?
With the fact that Jacko is a half-Warramunga aboriginal and he is currently participating in the Syrian war and World War II, I realized he is the connection. And when Jaime was accepted as the brother of the Warramunga, I came to the conclusion that the title is referring to the wars that Jacko and Jaime have participated in.
How about you? Who do you think is the title referring to and when did you realize it?

If the title is referring to the wars that Jacko and Jamie have participated in, then the title would be 'The Warramungas' War', not 'The Warramunga's War'. I think the title refers to the wars in which the Warramunga tribe helped Jacko and Jamie. Therefore, the Warramunga is referring to a people.Popcorn1 wrote: ↑08 Feb 2019, 03:03 In books, the title has a relationship to the story. So, when I started reading the book, I was looking for that connection. I has many assumptions and one of them is: when the Japanese was involved in the war, Jacko and Jaime was sent back to Australia to provide assistance. Then the Warramunga tribe will thus be embroiled in the war. However, as I read further, I found out that my assumption was wrong.
With the fact that Jacko is a half-Warramunga aboriginal and he is currently participating in the Syrian war and World War II, I realized he is the connection. And when Jaime was accepted as the brother of the Warramunga, I came to the conclusion that the title is referring to the wars that Jacko and Jaime have participated in.
How about you? Who do you think is the title referring to and when did you realize it?
If you want to be remembered long after you are gone, WRITE books worth READING or DO things worth WRITING about...

That's the impression I got as well. I don't know that it related to a person so much as a group - and to push the idea further, perhaps even more of the connection to the Warramunga people.timd wrote: ↑13 Feb 2019, 11:46 I think that the initial reaction to this question would be to identify Jacko as the person being referred to. However, the story continues in the outback of Australia where he and Jamie hunt down criminals and war criminals who escaped from Egypt. The Aborigines or Warramungas helped them both in this endeavour so I would say that the title includes his sister, his people as well as himself.
