What is it about Russian novels that when you get to liking a character
they kill them off. Okay to kill a few but all of them? To depressing.

Don't read the winds of war ;-)

I very much enjoyed that series, wish it'd been longer.

But you have to admit spoiler alert the Nazis get a lot of people
you were just starting to like. I read "winds" and "Remembrance"
during a freezing trip to Chicago where taking a coat just tricks you
into thinking you can go outside. If there were others I missed them.

Nope, just those two. It's a shame he didn't work through the Korean and Vietnam wars. Good author
(IMHO), although I'm sure Krause would say he's trash.
