Hi, my son is very into the whole war thing, playing Call of Duty on the PS3 with his Dad etc. Whilst I try and balance this with talking to him about what war is really about and encouraging him to watch documentaries he is desperate to read Chris Ryan style books. I have read the blurb on a couple of them and it worries me that they glorify war a little too much and also contain sex scenes that are definitely not appropriate to his age.
Does anyone know of any more appropriate books that he could read, that are still exciting , but are a little more realistic?
Any help is very much appreciated - he is a good reader but can be a bit reluctant at times unless he has something that really grabs him...
