Carter's Commandos series by Robert Cubitt (#1-5)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.6 MB
Overview: Bob was born in Edinburgh in December 1951. The first few years of Bob's life was spent travelling around the world with his family. During his first 15 years he lived in Edinburgh, Austria, Malaya, Enfield, Leigh-on-Sea, Maldon (the Essex one), Harlow and Peckham.
Genre: Fiction > General Fiction/Classics
1. Operation Absolom
There’s an old saying in the Army, ‘Never volunteer for anything’. It has been said many times, so why on Earth did Steven Carter ignore it?
After volunteering for the Army Commandos, Carter finds himself cut off in enemy occupied Norway. It’s winter, it’s cold and the enemy are hunting for him. Can he survive against all these odds? Even if the Germans don’t capture him, can he find a way back to England?
2. Operation Tightrope
The first rule of war is “Know your enemy”. But what happens when your enemy is supposed to be on your side?
The shadowy Major Warriner calls on Steven Carter to lead a mission deep behind enemy lines to bring back … well, that would be telling and careless talk costs lives. But it leads Carter and his men into danger such as they had never before encountered and they won’t just be fighting the Nazis this time. Once again the fate of the nation is held in the hands of the Army Commandos.
3. Operation Dagger
It’s 1942 and the British want to take the fight to the enemy in their own back yard. The biggest raid into enemy territory of the war has been planned, and Carter’s Commandos will be right at the sharp end of it.
Across the English Channel the enemy is sitting in relative peace and comfort in occupied France, while the land war is being fought in distant Africa and Russia. But the Allies are about to change that with a massive raid into France, to be mounted by the Canadians and British Commandos, supported by the Royal Navy and the RAF. Right in the thick of it will be 15 Commando and Steven Carter will be right at the sharpest end of the spear, climbing the cliffs to assault an unsuspecting artillery battery.
Danger is the commandos’ business and it doesn’t get much more dangerous than Operation Dagger.
4. Operation Carthage
The Battle of Kasserine is raging. The Americans and Free French armies are under pressure from Rommel’s tanks. The only thing that can stop the Germans is lack of fuel.
15 Commando are on the move. Firstly to Gibraltar and then to Algeria. After weeks of acclimatisation, the commando is given its mission: to blow up a German fuel dump. There are only two complications: it’s in Tunisia, a long way behind enemy lines and it’s right next to a field hospital, protected by the Geneva Convention.
Can 15 Cdo escape the German force that is sent to intercept them? More importantly, can they achieve their mission without committing a war crime? Operation Carthage – it’s a mission that would have challenged Hannibal himself.
5. Operation Leonardo
Operation Husky was the Allied invasion of Sicily in July 1943. But within that event were several smaller battles and operations, some now forgotten.
15 Commando are back in action, this time under the direct orders of General Montgomery to take and hold the bridge over the River Gabriel. The intelligence brief said there would be be almost no enemy resistance and that there were no German tanks within miles. General Montgomery said “The relief force will reach the bridge by lunchtime tomorrow”. The intelligence was wrong and Montgomery was wrong. And that is without taking into account the Fallschirmjäger division that parachuted in to defend the same bridge.
Cut off behind enemy lines and facing tanks that they aren’t equipped to deal with, can Carter’s Commandos hold the bridge?
