Son of Hitler is nothing like what I was expecting. Honestly, I don't know what I was expecting, but I know it wasn't this. Despite that, I was pleasantly surprised as I found it to be a character-driven thriller that kept me constantly guessing what was going to happen next. On top of that, it's an emotional gut-punch of a book that forces you to care about characters, even when you cannot condone their actions. It takes you down some dark alleys and consistently surprises you with some of the turns that it takes, but the ride never ceases to be engaging and compelling. Read Full Review

The story inside is worth checking out even if it leaves some questioning of particular plot elements. The shifts and reveals are intriguing, and I had a pretty good time reading it. I don't think it will be the graphic novel of the year, but it was a good read. Read Full Review
Son of Hitler by Geoff Moore and Anthony Del Col fails to live up to its provocative premise and instead reads like an amateur attempt at historical fiction, marred by tasteless choices and lackluster writing. The plot, which revolves around an absurd and overly dramatized conspiracy, never manages to find its footing, leaving readers wondering whether the authors were more focused on shock value than on telling a compelling story.
The dialogue is stilted, and the characters are one-dimensional caricatures, lacking any real development or emotional depth. It’s as if the writers were trying to create a dark, edgy narrative but instead produced a cartoonish, cringe-inducing mess. The historical inaccuracies only add to the frustr more
