Rain

12 August, 2015
Author: Barney Campbell
Genre: Fiction
Category: New Books

One of the first novels to address the reality of life on the modern day frontline, Rain, by ex-army officer Barney Campbell, has received resounding praise from the likes of Jeremy Paxman and William Boyd. The writing is good but it is the authencity, brutal realism and explosive ending that really impress. Campbell has produced a novel that makes a worthy contribution to our understanding of modern warfare and the emotional impact it has on its soldiers.
