A Review of ‘To Look on Death No More’ by Leta Serafim

https: //historicalnovelsociety.org/reviews/to-look-on-death-no-more/

Although many historical novels have been written about the Second World War, this is the first I’ve read that’s set in Greece, concerning the war’s effect on that country. Serafim’s To Look on Death No More tells a painful but engrossing story about Germany’s assault on the Greek isles….

This aspect of the war was unknown to me before this book. It’s as important as the Blitz and the occupation of Paris, and Serafim makes me want to learn more.

When the Devil’s Idle by Leta Serafim

"Excellent sequel to The Devil Takes Half."

--Publishers Weekly

"Serafim expertly creates the beauty of Greece. However, the real draws of this book are the fully developed, complex characters, and the facts on Greek culture and history. Book two in the Greek Islands Mystery series is sure to satisfy." --RT Magazine
