Review of 'Munich : Edge of War' on 'Goodreads'

For a piece of (moderately) fictionalized historical prose, this book does its job pretty well. It is obviously not an accurate historical account (nor does it imply it is) but it is very close to the overall history of the Sudetenland Crisis and the Munich Agreement. Based on my familiarity with the account based on a number of more "proper" books on that fateful period, I found the characters believable and the story well told and tight enough to be interesting and engaging. Not being the greatest fan of the "historical fiction" genre, I found I liked it enough to recommend.
