About this listen
Following the myths and legends about Nazis recruited by the French Foreign Legion to fight in Indochina, Eric Meyer's new book is based on the real story of one such former Waffen-SS man who lived to tell the tale. The legion recruited widely from soldiers left unemployed and homeless by the defeat of Germany in 1945. They offered new identities and passports to men who could bring their fighting abilities to the jungles and rice paddies of what was to become Vietnam. These were ruthless, trained killers, brutalized by the war on the Eastern Front, their killing skills honed to a razor's edge. They found their true home in Indochina, where they fought and became a byword for brutal military efficiency.

Computer generated narration
I couldn’t listen anymore the narration was too irritating. I will have to read a hard copy.

pure fiction
Absolute fiction, the parts where the main character makes love with a rescued prisoner in a RON point in Triple canopy jungle was the final straw.

Not the original story
what happened to the original story of the devils brigade. Feel like I've been cheated to only half a story.

Great story and very well formatted
The great disappointment of this audiobook is the narrator and the fact that it is only half the book. he has no sense of flow,structure, frequent pauses and monotone speech. in other words it feels like someone is just reading the book without any care or effort, there is no passion and due to this it makes the audiobook difficult to listen to, as all the characters sound the same,people,places and objects are blandly spoke about without any places and as such then lack significant.
I plan on writing to the publisher and
leaving a complaint that such low quality was put into this book,.

False advertising
Not a true story. Parts of the book were entertaining but not true as advertised.

Totally fictional
The original devils guard was better than this by far.
As a veteran legionnaire I found this book embarrassing and totally fictitious and yet isn’t listed under fiction, why ?
Please don’t waste your credits or money on this garbage.

Ruined
A book that I was looking forward to completely ruined by the narrator. Trying to do different accents made it unbearable to listen to. You think I’ll buy it and read it myself. Very disappointed.

Woefully bad.
Absolutely kicked the arse out of referencing the characters past. Not an enjoyable listen despite the synopsis suggesting that it might have promise.
