Sgt. Dunn #8
Sword of Ice
The Nazis are up to something. This isn’t news, but the location is. The Allies have discovered that an island above the Arctic Circle is occupied by the Nazis, but don’t know why they are there. Enter U.S. Army Sgt. Tom Dunn and his squad of lethal Rangers. Doing first things first, he leads his squad through frigid, brutal Arctic survival training before tackling the Germans on the Arctic island thousands of miles from anywhere.
Meanwhile, in Egypt, British Intelligence learns that Egyptian rebels, who want to force the British out sooner rather than later, are planning attacks on the extremely valuable and critical Suez Canal. Sgt. Malcolm Saunders and his squad of British Commandos are sent to solve the problem. Saunders, who fought the Germans in North Africa, is less than thrilled at the prospect of going back to the blistering desert.
After arriving on the Arctic island by way of submarine, Dunn learns it’s the dreaded Nazi SS who is there. He quickly determines that he and his men must pursue the SS across the island’s treacherous glacier. The thing is, the glacier is occupied not only by the SS troops, but also by one of the world’s greatest and feared predators. What could possibly go wrong?
In book eight of the Sgt. Dunn WWII Action Thriller series, Munsterman, in his gripping page-turning style, alternately makes the reader shiver and sweat as he weaves story lines from the frozen Arctic to the scorching Egyptian desert. He continues to masterfully blend fiction and historical fact to create an action-packed plot.

Ronn just keeps them coming. A perfectly entertaining series. Well researched with solid characters you can't avoid liking. You can read them out of order but what fun
is that. Start with book one. Hours of pleasure.

Great story teller..I have read all of the sgt. Dunn books so far. A little slow in beginning as he catches up on previous story lines but still very interesting. Looking forward to next book in series.

Not my favorite in the Dunn Series
Didn’t seem like there as a whole of action in this one. And with three stories going at the same time it was hard to keep track of what was going on

One of the best of the series
I don’t know how you can pick the best from so many, but, as of now, this one was possibly my favorite. Don’t miss this series. Basically they’re stand alone books but you’ll definitely miss a lot if you don’t get acquainted with the characters.

Another great one
These books are hotter than the Egypt sun. And they are colder than the Artic when one of the boys get wounded or killed. If you love W W 2 adventures these books are for you. Start this series today.

I enjoy reading of military actions and this author is very adept in taking real situations, articles and people, then developing a story

Series starting to sag. This is the weakest story by far with numerous holes in the plot and a contrived fire and ice contrast that comes at the expense of the story.
