Fury of the Tiger

World of Blood and Tanks Book 1

De: Eric Meyer

Narrado por: Jeff Bower

America's greatest military gamble of World War Two, the invasion of France. This is the background for an epic novel of two tanks. The crewmen of the Sherman M4 are an ill-assorted bunch of squabbling Americans, forced to swallow their differences in order to survive. The German Tiger is manned by fanatical young Nazis, Hitler Youth, and led by a tough veteran of the bitter war on the Eastern Front.

The Sherman and the Tiger clash in a series of desperate fights during the early days of the invasion. Only the savage power of the guns and the courage of the crews will decide who survives to emerge victorious. Fury of the Tiger is a powerful and engaging story based on the so-called Battle of the Hedgerows, the Allied struggle for Normandy.

A Fated Skirmish?

I was entertained by this story. I was amazed at the worldbuilding as I felt like I was stuck in the tank with the characters. I liked Sargeant Josh Grant. I understood the bickering of the men as they learned to adjust to their new world which was circumscribed by the limited space of the tank. I appreciated the inclusion of historical facts. There were a couple of scenes which I found difficult to listen to as they depicted graphic violence. I thought Jeff Bower's narration was great, and his performance enhanced the emotional impact of the story. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
