A VIVID AND UNFLINCHING PORTRAYAL OF WWI'S DEADLIEST BATTLES AND THE MEN WHO FOUGHT THEM.

THE PALS KNEW TO ANSWER THE CALL... In the close-knit pit villages of County Durham, a group of young men answer the call to arms as the Great War erupts across Europe. Drawn together by the promise that they will fight alongside each other, the Pals enlist in the 2nd Service Battalion of the Durham Light Infantry, part of Kitchener's New Army.

Their tight-knit team, forged on the football pitches of West Auckland Town FC, becomes an elite fighting unit, known as The Knaves. Specialists in stealth and daring missions behind enemy lines, they operate under cover of darkness with unmatched skill and unwavering loyalty to each other. Known for leaving a calling card -- the Jack of Clubs -- at every strike, they earn a fearsome reputation among both allies and enemies.

The Knaves embody cunning, courage and brotherhood, striking where others dare not tread.

From the poison gas horrors of Ypres to the blood-soaked trenches of the Somme and the mud-choked hell of Passchendaele, The Knaves face the full brutal force of modern warfare while fighting to preserve not just their lives, but their humanity.

Pals War is a vivid, gripping saga of friendship and fortitude that will keep you riveted from the first call to arms to the final brutal charge.

For fans of Sebastian Faulks' Birdsong, Pat Barker's Regeneration trilogy and Ken Follett's Fall of Giants.
