OK hear me out, what if the reason I like WW2 history is because there's a lot of kicking nazi ass
Or to write lore accurate day in the life of a 40k human soldier
The WW1 trenches are also very rich with inspiration, and the Napoleonic era Sharpe books have influenced quite a few Black Library books if you want more to read
Thanks for reminding me that I need to finish the Sharpe miniseries.
Ah yes, Sharpe also exists as a movie serie with Sean Bean! That slipped my mind so thanks for the reminder :)
Summary of WW2: "Nazi punks fuck off".
I like reading about all the spy shit and codebreaking that went on. WWII is really interesting if you're into the history of computer science and encryption.
