Immediate, well written volume in a World War II trilogy

Warfare Accomplished is the third volume in a World War II trilogy by Edith Pargeter. It concludes the story begun in The Eighth Champion of Christendom and continued in Reluctant Odyssey. There is an immediacy present in these books which is missing in many war novels. Mrs. Pargeter wrote them during the war and apparently interviewed soldiers in hospital and on troop trains. The story is wrenching and poignant and one of the best reads I have ever had. My husband, who is not a fiction fan, was riveted. Edith Pargeter also wrote the Brothers of Gwynedd Quartet and The Heaven Tree trilogy, both set in medieval times. The Heaven Tree is a wonderful love story with beautiful descriptions of the mason's art and the building of a gothic church. We also know Edith Pargeter as Ellis Peters, the author of the Brother Cadfael mysteries.
