Retrieved September 21, 2021.Tales of wretched excess: these actors spent most of their days drunk as skunks getting into all kinds of mischief--much of which they couldn't remember. But they all made indelible marks during the 50's, 60's, and 70's when they were in their heyday. A lot of what went on with these guys (Richard Burton, Oliver Reed, Richard Harris and lone survivor, Peter O'Toole)off stage caused bruises on my chin from my jaw dropping so often (and I felt a bit woozy from all the vicarious boozing)--but after a while, the legacy of their excesses and their attempts to stay on various wagons was wrenching; doctors operating on Richard Burton, towards the end of his life, discovered that his spinal column was coated with crystalized alcohol; marriages were shattered; careers evaporated. In the end, all of them are and will be remembered fondly for the brief shining moments of their acting lives--and that they had a hell of a time.

Heavy on the Manichean good v evil and mind-body dualism, Stevenson’s famous tale from 1886 is a metaphor for addiction, as the drugs Jekyll uses to get straight stop working, and the devilish Id, Hyde, starts to take over. As with Dorian Gray, four years later, exactly what he gets up to in his mysterious adventures in Soho and the East End is, apart from violence, not detailed. Leaving us to fill in this tabula rasa by dreaming up guilty pleasures of our own. An indulgence not afforded by more explicit contemporary hellraising accounts.

Richard Harris was living in the Savoy Hotel when he died of Hodgkins disease. As he was being wheeled out on a stretcher to an ambulance, he propped himself up on emaciated elbows and shouted "It's the food! Don't touch the food!" (270)When a sixteen-year-old troublemaker named Marlow Green is trapped in a surreal firefight against nightmarish creatures in the middle of his New York City neighborhood, he unwittingly finds himself amid a squad of secret soldiers dedicated to battling the legions of the devil himself. Powering this army of young misfits is an ancient machine from the darkest parts of history. Known as the devil's engine, it can make any wish come true-as long as you are willing to put your life on the line. Promised powers beyond belief, and facing monstrous apparitions straight out of the netherworld, Marlow must decide if he's going to submit to a demonic deal with the infernal machine that will enable him to join the crusade-if it doesn't kill him first.

The central topic of Churchill’s Hellraisers is Operation Tombola, which unfolded in northern Italy in the closing weeks of World War II. Despite the collapse of Nazi forces on both the Eastern and Western Fronts, the German 10th and 14th Armies lay dug into seemingly impregnable defensive positions on the Gothic Line that lay high across the calf of the Italian peninsula. The Allied drive north through Italy was stalled. Tombola was conceived to create havoc behind the line in support of an Allied offensive to break through and drive the Nazis from the country. There, British special forces would ally with Italian partisans to do what seemed impossible. And it worked. But there’s much more to the story.One thing I want to be sure to note is that if you aren't a fan of gore, you might want to steer clear of this book anyway. Alexander Gordon Smith does not shy away from it, and he's very good at conveying it to the point of making the reader able to visualize things that shouldn't even be introduced to their brains. CHURCHILL'S HELLRAISERS:THE SECRET MISSION TO STORM A FORBIDDEN NAZI FORTRESS BY DAMIEN LEWIS is the true story of the Special Forces group of people who secretly infiltrated Nazi held Italy during WWII to help not only feed and supply the Italian resistance groups ,but to conduct operations both singly and jointly ,to destroy,sabotage and disrupt the Nazi troops,facilities and equipment and help resistant groups do the same. Many men were killed , but the survivors of these groups have finally opened up and told the secrets that they sworn to preserve after many many decades. In CHURCHILL'S HELLRAISERS,their , bravery and their stories are finally being told. Only one of these men is left alive, which is a pity. One may be able to tell a lot about how these men lived by how they died. The subtitle suggests that Operation Tombola is the book’s subject. But Major Farran, the mission’s commander, doesn’t arrive on the scene until halfway through the story. The first half introduces him and Captain Lees in a rambling account of numerous other officers and men and the special operations they carried out not just in Italy but throughout Europe and North Africa.

The difference between the ‘What I liked’ and the ‘What Could Have Been Better’ might make you think I mostly didn’t like the book but that isn’t true. I liked it okay, it’s just that nothing about it really grabbed at me and made me go WOWZA, THIS IS AMAZEBALLS and that’s kind of what I expected given the novel's amazing blurb.

But after the initial process of escaping a suffocating situation, Marlow slows down and realizes just what he’s done. Where does he have to go to now? What will his mother say? Hardly able to breathe without constant use of his inhaler, he’s hardly an impressive being-in fact, he’s actually a coward: Always running at the first sign of complacency, always becoming the troublemaker when he should be making it work. Marlow is nothing but trouble…but he’s about to see what real trouble looks like….and it’s not a kid with a bad attitude and an inhaler. Within these chapters he takes turns to deal with each of his subjects’ private lives during that period. Though these descriptions can be read as biographical entries, given the nature of this book they very much focus on anecdotes highlighting the excessive nature of their personalities. If there is one genuine difference between the two Hellraiser books it is that the Hollywood fraternity seems to have been more involved with illegal drugs in comparison to their more boozy British brethren.
