A wonderful collection by one of our finest authors, ''War'' is a collection that has been beautifully drawn together by Penguin, and forms part of a really wonderful series that they've released - a fitting tribute to Dahl and his incredibly body of work. Many thanks to the publishers for the copy.
For further reading I recommend [[Of Lions and Unicorns: A Lifetime of Tales from the Master Storyteller by Michael Morpurgo]]. Whilst aimed more at children, Murporgo deals with war (amongst other subjects) with a maturity and directness that doesn't talk down to children - emotive and exciting. It is worth saying that many of the stories are extracts from Murpurgo's larger works - but for me they read well as brief snapshots among the other tales. War can often happen after [[Trickery by Roald Dahl|Trickery]].
