great book i don't have much to say just that the story was shocking to know more about this character

Thank you, NetGalley and Pen & Sword, Greenhill Books, for the advanced copy of Heydrich in exchange for my honest review.

I wasn’t familiar with Heydrich and his role before reading this book. I had to read in several sittings. The evil deeds of men like Heydrich can’t be forgotten.

Thank you to the author, Pen & Sword Publishing, and NetGalley for the Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Very interesting book to read. But felt it was very badly written. It could have been much better, it definitely could have been doing with being longer. The information could have been more in-depth also

Amazing book on one of the most coldblooded figures within Nazi Regime: Reinhard Heydrich. As the chef of SD, The Secret Police and the Gestapo he was responsible for the death of thousands of Jews. The book is well-written and well-researched. The must-read for all interested in the history of WW2.

This is a reprint of a work about one of the architects of the Final Solution. It is astonishing how a simple, if bratty child became the cold blooded of people he’s never met and hadn’t done anything wrong to him, and yet thought people loved him.

Overall, the editing needed more work, as it's noticeable that the author passed away and the book was taken over by someone else. More details on linked review!

I was so excited to receive this book for review and could not put it down once I started. It is a comprehensive, no holds barred analysis of one of the most influential members of the Nazi party. Heydrich’ s cruelty and crimes are well known but this book brings new depth to the subject. Well researched and written, this is a must-have addition to the library of any WWII history buff. By creating books such as this, authors help ensure the Holocaust is not forgotten and perhaps humanity can learn from its history.
