HERE'S WHAT
H. P. OLIVER FANS ARE SAYING ABOUT |
This story kept me interested from beginning to end. I enjoyed this book because it was magical the way every thing just seemed to fit together. Reading a story like this made me happy! ~Sharon Kersting |
Excellent Johnny Spicer thriller! Another great Johnny Spicer detective novel, only this time Johnny has joined the Army's MID (Military Intelligence Division), chasing the bad guys around the globe! I'm a big fan of this author's 1940's gumshoe and his portrayal of the '40s era in LA. Highly recommended! ~Gary Alan Henson |
Johnny Spicer goes to war. My favorite Hollywood Private Investigator brings his no nonsense approach to the war against Japan and Germany as a member of the U.S. military, with the same intensity and sense of humor as he did his in personal cases. ~Les Cook |
Great Story! He writes a fast pace, lots of action. Oliver writes very good informational historical story. Very believable. Not too much sex. ~Amazon Customer |
Fast paced WWII story--my favorite HPO novel to date S.N.A.F.U starts at a fast pace and continued to hold my attention throughout the story. It was hard to put down, and I forced myself to take a break every little while. Just prior to the United States entering the Second World War, Johnny Spicer is recalled to the Army Military Intelligence Division as a Major, closing his Investigation Agency to serve our country on the home front. I have read many books about the war in Europe and the Pacific, and S.NA.F.U. is an interesting foray into fighting the war at home. ~LVReader |
Another Movie in the Making The book came out and I read it fast—as if I were greedy for the next word, the next action, the final solution. I must remember to savor the good things in life, so I will go back and read S.N.A.F.U. again. This time a chapter at a time so I can appreciate: the way the Major thinks, plans and delivers; appreciate the height of the tallest peak of Catalina Island or the height of the Golden Gate Bridge; and, to see what other of the infinite details that I know I shimmed over. ~Lilly |
Wow! That Was Fun! This caper is the most exciting yet! Non-stop action from the gitgo! I do so love the avalanche of thrilling events as the story unfolds. I also enjoy trying to figure out who Johnny is after and just how is he going to nail the perpetrators. ~Diana S. Johnson |
