Multi-award-winning author Tom Palmer returns with a thrilling naval adventure inspired by the incredible history of the Second World War Arctic convoys.
The Arctic Star is a thrilling World War 2 novel. It features 3 friends – Frank, Joseph and Stephen who are all a part of the royal navy. For their first mission, they must deliver crucial supplies to the Soviets. But the journey is not simple – enemy planes, mines and ships pose a huge threat to the young sailors and their ship. Only the strongest will survive. Will they all make it home? I really enjoyed this book, because the main characters are all really young, just like most of the soldiers in WW2. Arctic Star made me think a little more about all the young boys who fought for us in the Second World War. Ronnie, Mostly Books Youth Ambassador
