I have read a sample of the book only but from the quote above, I think the title refers to the battles Jacko and Jamie were engaged in back in Australia, with the assistance of the Warramunga tribesmen against some criminals. It all started in Syria where Jamie was impressed by Jacko's marksmanship.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.
Who do you think the title refers to?

I didn't know about the navy ship thing. Thankyou for the info.briellejee wrote: ↑08 Feb 2019, 11:39 To be honest, the title reminded me of a warship. It's more like a "what" instead of a "who" for me. Warramunga is a name of navy ship used for war and that was my first impression of the title of the book. But after reading, I think I realized that it actually referred to Jacko and his skills as a half-Warramunga aboriginal and how such a native may have won the war due to his inborn qualities and sharing them with Jamie as well. This is further expanded too in the second book of the series entitled "The Skills of the Warramunga". So I believed the book, and the rest of the series is centered on the Warramunga tribe.
