📚 𝗕𝗟𝗢𝗚 𝗧𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 📚 𝗔 𝗗𝗔𝗥𝗞 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗘𝗟 𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗛 by Chris Nickson ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Today I’m sharing my thoughts on A Dark Steel Death as part of the blog tour hosted by Random Things Tours. Thank you for my spot on the tour, and for your patience while I’m dealing with health issues. 𝗠𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 I wasn’t aware of the Tom Harper mystery series before this tour, but I will make an effort to read them all as this is a brilliant book! I felt fully enveloped in the 1916 setting such was the author’s skill at describing the environment and characters. The story was intriguing and a pleasure to read Tom Harper is reliable, resilient, and professional, tangled between the office admin of a senior officer and the compulsion to carry out investigations, all while worrying about his wife Annabel’s worsening dementia. Each character was relatable and entirely credible, especially Brigadier Fox, who despite his being an officer, I liked. The historical research carried out by the author was meticulous and evident on every page; the dialogue, personalities, policing methods, the Great War, all felt so realistic that I could visualise each scene as it happened. Overall, I’m so happy I read this book and will be reading the series in due course. I would recommend this to any reader of historical or wartime fiction, with the caveat that you should read the whole series if only for better backstory and context. I gave A Dark Steel Death, by Chris Nick son, five stars. #ad #gifted #adarksteeldeath #chrisnicksonauthor #severnhouse #severnhousepublishers #RandomThingsTours #mystery #ww1 #historical fiction #booklover #bookstagrammers #johnsbookshelf #bookstabloggers #bookreader #blogtour #bookstagram #bookshelf #bookaddict #igreads #bookblog #readabook #johnsbookshelfblogs #bookaholic #fortheloveofbooks #goodreadschallenge2022 #bookpost #blogpost #johnsbookshelfreviews #honestreviewsonly (at Southampton, England, U.K.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjiCpDtIHCx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
