Years after leaving the 113th Foot, Jack Windrush is sent to the Northwest Frontier of India to investigate reports of gun-running among the Pashtun tribes.

When he discovers that the reports are not only true, but run deeper than initially believed, he is assigned to stop the rogue group and prevent an uprising. Soon, old friends turn into mortal enemies and loyalty becomes a scarce commodity.

As the Islamic revolt against the British rises across the Frontier, can Jack and his unit stop the rebel uprising?

    I absolutely love this series. It is not only exciting, it's educational.

    This sixth book of the Jack Windrush series picks up, again, with the soldiering career of Jack, this time on the Afghanistan frontier in 1863.

    The descriptions of different native units explains so much as each have their own unique approach to soldiering both for the British and warring tribal forces. I like how Jack becomes so philosophical regarding his work as a British soldier assigned to basic spy work in the frontier here. He works at understanding the various tribal customs and history never shirking his duty. His every thought, while on campaign, is to protect and support his men. He puts himself into precarious situations as he does his duty regardless of threat to his own life.

    This series is filled with adventure and descriptions of geography, methods and tactics using a very likeable protagonist with a conscience.

    Readers of historical fiction would most likely enjoy this exciting series so well written. Thumbs up all the way!!!! Cannot wait for the next book of this great series.

    All of the Windrush series are good reads if you appreciate British historical fiction. However, Mr Archibald writes with extreme redundancy and quite often ignores obvious ideas. His greatest downfall is the simple fact that his Windrush character has fired his revolver literally dozens of time and has never scored a hit! No officer of any army is that poor with a handgun!

    Reading Malcolm Archibald's work is such a pleasure. His use of language is impeccable. Malcolm's research into his topic is always thorough and adds meat into the story. In regard to his research for this book it is too bad George W. Bush and all the Presidents of the U.S. who have followed didn't read this book before engaging in the longest running war in U.S. history. Perhaps all those Presidents might have learned from the wisdom of the Pashtun who said repeatedly a day is nothing, a year is nothing. More, thousands of young Americans, and Brits, would not have had to die in that unforgiving land. His Characters are drawn, even if you have not read a prior book in the series, with care and attention to flesh, realism, honest human behaviors. The story thread in this book has some similarities to others in the series in that it places Windrush into drastic, death dealing circumstances. Does our boy Jack survive. Read the book. You'll find out. Among the authors I read with regularity from Scotland or England, Malcolm is one of the best, if not the best. This is an easy five stars, with an added Cry Havelock.

    Set in the context of British expansion in the area of Northwest India, the author once again brings history alive. Windrush is the hero we all wish to be, loyal and honorable.

    That one word was the only suitable title I could think of for my review of Warriors of God, the author's latest episode in the life of Jack Windrush. In this latest installment, we find Jack, now a captain, happily married to Mary, his Anglo-Indian sweetheart, with a young son, Arthur. No longer with his beloved 113th Infantry regiment, Jack finds himself posted as a staff officer to General Neville Chamberlain's command as he embarks on a campaign against the so-called Warriors of God (the Mujahadin) on India's North West Frontier, the notorious Khyber Pass. This was a book I really identified with, as my father was a British soldier who met and married an Anglo-Indian beauty, (my mother), and who served on the frontier in thr Khyber Pass, in the 1930s. A later time perhaps, but as is mentioned in the book, for the people of that area, time is of no matter, and nothing really changes, even today.
    I won't post any spoilers, but will just say that the author's attention to detail and historical accuracy is uncanny in a novel, and the action is almost non-stop and thrilling from start to finish. There are new characters, as Jack finds himself serving with the Guides, and yet once again tasked with the dangerous job of intelligence gathering behind enemy lines. There's ever-present danger and high tension on every page. As my title for this review simply states, Warriors of God is, superb!

    I loved the historical elements and the details of the engagements and how the writer used Windrush as a mouthpiece to use hindsight to give an alternate view to the military ethos of the time.
    The whole series was a great read, and showed how unsettled the world was at the time.
