Book Blurb:


It was a surefire raid to free prisoners, but it will soon become a battle for Wolf's soul. When an escaped Northern prisoner reaches Union lines, his tales of abuse at Libby Prison set up the perfect justifications for a daring raid on Richmond. Johannes Wolf has made a crucial mistake. He's volunteered for a secret raid, dragging along with him, his unit of misfits. They fall under the command of Colonel Ulric Dahlgren and set out on a quest for redemption and vengeance that will strike at the head of the Southern Cause. Will they become famous for their glorious raid as knights of the North? Or will they become savages? Or even forgotten corpses buried in a shallow grave? Continue the Northern Wolf series and immerse yourself into America's historical battle for her heart and soul, packed with grueling choices, epic battles, and the horror of war. Fans of Bernard Cornwell, Griff Hosker, Michael Shaara, and Steven Pressfield will love the newest installment of the Northern Wolf Series.


My Review:


In the second book in this incredible series, the reader gets to continue to follow Wolf in his journey through the cauldron of the US Civil War. This time, Daniel Greene takes the reader on a rarely discussed raid on Richmond.


Brilliantly researched, Northern Hunt drips realism. The true horrors of war are brought to the forefront. You really get an accurate feel for the brutality of war from reading this tale. Once more, the fictional characters are seamlessly woven into historical facts. It isn't long before you will believe that men from Michigan's 13th were taking part in this historic raid.


A must-read if you had the privilege of reading the first book, Northern Wolf. I truly enjoyed the chapters on Wade Hampton again. A very well-written work. Recommended to fans of historical fiction. Recommended to readers who enjoy military fiction. A gritty book that rewards the reader for the act of reading.


My Rating: 5 stars
