A Web of Secrets by Roberta Kagan I was so happy to get my hands on Roberta Kagan’s third and final book in her latest saga, The Third Reich and a Web of Secrets。In this book we learn more about Oskar, where he came from and what he is capable of。 I enjoyed reading from Oskar’s point of view, you get to know him on a personal level and when he retells what happened in the past (books 1 and 2) you see how dark and evil his heart is。I loved this book from beginning to end, the story was fast paced A Web of Secrets by Roberta Kagan I was so happy to get my hands on Roberta Kagan’s third and final book in her latest saga, The Third Reich and a Web of Secrets。In this book we learn more about Oskar, where he came from and what he is capable of。 I enjoyed reading from Oskar’s point of view, you get to know him on a personal level and when he retells what happened in the past (books 1 and 2) you see how dark and evil his heart is。I loved this book from beginning to end, the story was fast paced and exciting and I loved the ending。 I would like to thank Net Galley and The Book Whisperer for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review 。。。more

I did not read the first two books in this series but I was able to read this as a stand alone and could totally see the characters and how they have interacted and where the story was going in this book。 I loved the storyline and the way the tangled stories of the characters。 I was not a huge fan of the writing style, it felt a little clipped 。。。。。I prefer a story that flows and I get lost in the pages。。。。that being said I had a hard time putting down as I wanted to know what happens in the end I did not read the first two books in this series but I was able to read this as a stand alone and could totally see the characters and how they have interacted and where the story was going in this book。 I loved the storyline and the way the tangled stories of the characters。 I was not a huge fan of the writing style, it felt a little clipped 。。。。。I prefer a story that flows and I get lost in the pages。。。。that being said I had a hard time putting down as I wanted to know what happens in the end with these characters。 I gave it 3。5 stars for writing style I would have given more if the style was different。 I would recommend this series to a friend or my book club I received a free copy from NetGalley and The Book Whisperer。 All opinions expressed are my own。 。。。more

I've just finished Web of Secrets and I loved every minute of it。 It continued the story of Oskar and Kara and Karl。The story was riveting and painful to read, but well written !The characters in the book became family to be。 I cared about them and felt deep sorrow for them! I especially liked how to book ended and where the family ended up after the war! I always enjoy Roberta Kagan’s books and recommend them to anyone who reads Historical Fiction! Great job Roberta!!

And we got to the end of the story, this book is the last book in the WWII series Jews, the Third Reich。With her extensive historical research Roberta Kagan has written a climactic ending to this extraordinary story。 We read about the fate of all the characters in the Saga, Oskar, Anka, Abram。We learn about Oskar's past and the reason he behaves so sadistically towards the jews and everyone whom he takes a dislike to, why does he lies and weaves such a web of secrets。 There is a shocking twist i And we got to the end of the story, this book is the last book in the WWII series Jews, the Third Reich。With her extensive historical research Roberta Kagan has written a climactic ending to this extraordinary story。 We read about the fate of all the characters in the Saga, Oskar, Anka, Abram。We learn about Oskar's past and the reason he behaves so sadistically towards the jews and everyone whom he takes a dislike to, why does he lies and weaves such a web of secrets。 There is a shocking twist in his story。Will Anka gets to find out the true nature of her husband Oskar? Will she stay with him?What about Abram? Will he survive the horror of Auschwitz? Does he gets to reunite with his family at the end?All of the questions that we have throughout the whole story encompassing the three books of the series are answered on this book, with lots of heartbreak and shocking events this book will keep you glued to it from the first page until the last one。I can't recommend this book enough, truth is I can't recommend enough the whole trilogy, it is that good, 。。。more

This is the third and final book of the series and truth to be told, I was waiting for this book to come out soon。 In this book, you will learn more about Oskar Lerch, the brutal Nazi who likes to torture and with the Germans losing the war, what is eventually going to happen, to the lives of Kara, Anka, Abram and Oskar。The first few chapters is about Oskar and how he ended up becoming the brutal Nazi, outlining about his family and about his twin brother。 I am not going to give much spoiler but This is the third and final book of the series and truth to be told, I was waiting for this book to come out soon。 In this book, you will learn more about Oskar Lerch, the brutal Nazi who likes to torture and with the Germans losing the war, what is eventually going to happen, to the lives of Kara, Anka, Abram and Oskar。The first few chapters is about Oskar and how he ended up becoming the brutal Nazi, outlining about his family and about his twin brother。 I am not going to give much spoiler but let's just say there's a bit of a twist between Oskar, and his twin brother。 Then comes Abram who is determined to live after he realized that Kara is alive with their son Karl and Kara who is pregnant with Oskar's child。 There's also Anka's failed marriage with Ludwig and that Ludwig is supposedly having an affair。 But that's where the story starts。Just like the two previous books, I managed to finish this book within two days and didn't want to put the book down, wanting to know what is going to happen in the end。 I was literally hooked into the book, hoping that Abram and Kara will reunite and survive。 The author as usual has done tremendous research about the history, that Nazis not only hated the Jews but Gypsies, Poles, communists and political prisoners are also victims of the brutal regime。 It was intense also as I was glued to the book, wondering what's going to happen next。 However, the ending was left with satisfaction and something that I expected with Kara and Abram living happily ever after in newly formed Israel。Nevertheless I was kind of sad to finish the series but I am looking forward to read more of the books from the author again!Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC。 The review is based on my honest opinion only。 。。。more

Web of Secrets is the third book in the trilogy, spanning the decades from the early 1900s to shortly after WWII。 The backstory of Walter and Hedy, though too hurried to me, is interesting, and we get a good look at Oskar's life before he meets his wife, Kara。 He is SS with the Nazis but treats Kara and her son Karl with kindness。 However, as the war reaches a crescendo, so do their lives。 Deceptions and secrets abound all over the place。 Kara's sister Anka and her husband Ludwig have issues of Web of Secrets is the third book in the trilogy, spanning the decades from the early 1900s to shortly after WWII。 The backstory of Walter and Hedy, though too hurried to me, is interesting, and we get a good look at Oskar's life before he meets his wife, Kara。 He is SS with the Nazis but treats Kara and her son Karl with kindness。 However, as the war reaches a crescendo, so do their lives。 Deceptions and secrets abound all over the place。 Kara's sister Anka and her husband Ludwig have issues of their own。 In the story we see lives saved and lives wasted, genuine love and obsession, joy and tragedy, tenderness and barbarism。My favourite aspect of the book is the twistiness, some predictable and some not。 I also enjoyed learning about the psychology behind characters。 The writing style is simple but effective。Though reading the trilogy in order would be helpful, it is not critical。 But of course the third book should be read last。My sincere thank you to The Book Whisperer and NetGalley for the privilege of reading this book! 。。。more
