Liverpool Soldier was very favourably reviewed over 2 pages in the LIVERPOOL DAILY POST on Saturday the 11th of March by David Charters. If you wish to read the full transcript see the bottom of the Liverpool Soldier details.

A few people who have read the book have kindly left comments in the guest book. If you have read it, could you do likewise? Here are some comments:-

I just purchased 8 copies of Liverpool Soldier to wrap up and put under the tree. You are right when you said the novel has something for everyone, a perfect fit for my family-military members and hopeless romantics alike.

I thoroughly enjoyed your novel; once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. It only took me 2 1/2 days to finish it from cover to cover. (Believe me, there was some tough competition, I was in Ontario to see my 7 week old nephew)

Obviously Liverpool Soldier was HIGHLY recommended by Paul as he is very proud of your work. I wasn’t too sure what to expect but I thought I’d give it a go. I was surprised how quickly I became engrossed with the story.  I’m curious what my family and friends will think of the book. I will keep you posted  :):)

Started and finished your book this weekend. I had a tough time putting it down!

Book was gripping, interesting and so easy to visualise the characters.  Made fantastic reading!

A fantastically plausible read, I became gripped and couldn't put it down, A credit to your imagination and knowledge of history,  has left me hungry for more. :)

I loved Liverpool Soldier, and look forward selling my signed copy for a small fortune once you're a rich and famous author, and sold the film rights.

Just finished this book and was very impressed. I would have no problem recommending this wartime novel and it now joins my ever increasing Liverpool library.

I have just finished Liverpool Soldier. What a fantastic read!! A great mix of fact and fiction, thriller and tear-jerker. Can't wait for the next book - keep on writing, you're a star.

Liverpool Soldier- a great read and all the better for starting out factually before embarking on the fictional events of Germany invading England during the war -  a very real scenario that existed at that time.

I did thoroughly enjoy the book, it brought back a lot of memories about the areas and it was therefore easy to relate too.

I really, really enjoyed reading this book and it held my interest from start to finish. You had obviously done a great job with your research. I have visited some concentration camps and I could visualise what was happening. Well done, Paul.

Dear Mr. Hurley,

I have just finished reading your book Liverpool Soldier and felt that I would like to say that I found it very good. In fact after the first couple of chapters, which I did find a bit heavy going simply because I am not particularly interested in military matters, I couldn't put the book down. I don't know if you have written anything else, or if you intend to write more, but I hope so and will look forward to reading more.

I have now resumed work on my next novel, Manna From Hell. A police thriller that is up to 55.000 words but I am continuing with my third novel (12.000 words) when I fancy a change. It has the temporary title Land Girl to Spy and details can be found on the site.
