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 frustration, making the entire endeavor feel both lazy and poorly researched. The art does little to salvage the book. While some reviewers have praised the monochromatic palette, the overall execution feels rushed and uninspired. The characters, much like the story, come off as flat and unappealing. Son of Hitler is ultimately a disappointing read that seems more like the fantasy of an out-of-touch, bitter individual than the work of seasoned storytellers. It’s the kind of book that makes you wonder if it was written with any sense of responsibility or awareness of its tone and impact, or if it was just an attempt to push boundaries in the most juvenile way possible. Avoid this one if you’re looking for a story with any semblance of taste or narrative competence.
