Book review

I have just finished reading The First Casualty by Ben Elton. I haven’t read any of his books before and I must confess that when i started I didn’t think it was particularly well written. But that seemed to change as it went on – or maybe I just got used to it. The only reason I had bought it is that I am interested in the First World War, that being it’s subject.

However, it turned out to be a good read from a novel’s point of view and a good commentary on the horror of war.
