Featured Official Review: Skills of the Warramunga by Greg Kater [October 2019 Book of the Month]

[Seamstress]

Finally! History is my genre, but since I find it somewhat awkward to consider part of trilogy as a standalone I will have to read it all. I wouldn't want to miss some critical detail hidden in full-story.

I am already a Greg Kater fan having read the previous entries in this triology. I love his writing style. I had found Jacko and Jamie to be quite interesting characters, adding Sarah should make a fun filled read.
This is a well written review. Congrats to Greg Kater on another #BOTD.

This is not an area of study I know anything about so I would love to learn something! The great reviews have me hopeful that it will be a good read.

Thanks for your engaging review of this book. I do enjoy historical war stories from time to time, but I don't think that this book will be a good fit for me. I'm glad that this book can be read as a stand-alone, but I'd want to read the first books prior before diving into this novel. I'm sure that others will enjoy reading this book.

[Misael Carlos]

A historical fiction with a mix of kidnapping, theft and murder: a surefire hit for the fans of this genre! Happy reading!

very intriguing however as one who has had the blessing to travel to Australia and see the culture for myself I would find the vocab and its proper use something of importance. Although the review was elegant not too much and yet not enough revealed making this interesting to say the least. Grats on botd.

I don't know what it is about this series that has yet to spark my interest. Normally murders and kidnappings are right up my alley (fiction-wise only of course), but Jack-o and gang have never struck my fancy. Good to know that you can read one Warramunga book without the others. Always important info to have when you are considering a book mid-series.

[Rafaella Michailidou]

I'm not sure if this book is my cup of tea but I 'm glad you liked it. I can tell it's a well written book, but I guess you should read the previous book before digging into it.

From a sampling, this is definitely a great addition to the Warramunga Trilogy. Similar to its preceding stories, this one features the classic spy organization, MI6, and its agent, but this time it involves the end of the war, new characters and a plot that will make you not want to put it down. Well Done.

Nice review. Historical fiction isn’t really my cup of tea most times, but the well developed characters, action, and murders do make it sound very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[chelhack]

I have not read this book as I have the two others. Though, this story seems or at least sounds to be just as good as those other to that these series consist of.

[Uche B]

You seemed to really enjoy this book. I'd like to read it, any books that I can learn some history from appeals to me.

Skills of the Warramunga is the third book in the Warramunga Trilogy by author Greg Kater. Set in 1946 Malaya, the plot of this intriguing historical fiction includes kidnapping, theft, and murder.

This sounds good. I read the Warramunga's War and really liked it. I can't wait to see the action in Malaya. It's also nice to note that there are no errors!

[Laura Ungureanu]

I am glad to see these memorable characters again. I didn't read the previous books because I don't like war stories, but the characters stayed with me.

I've read the others. They are just as good. I haven't read the last one. I really enjoyed the characters. Good find on that word.
