Hawke's Doom is a fun romp of a book. Blending elements of pulp fiction, comedy, and B-Movies, Vincze has created an interesting alternate universe by taking the well-trod trope of going back in time to kill Hitler and turning it on its head. Readers looking for a book that seems to be written by an overly imaginative 15-year-old boy need look no further-- and this is a compliment, as it is the frame which Vincze uses to house his over-the-top hero stuck in a dystopian timeline.

Hawke's Doom is a fun romp of a book. Blending elements of pulp fiction, comedy, and B-Movies, Vincze has created an interesting alternate universe by taking the well-trod trope of going back in time to kill Hitler and turning it on its head. Readers looking for a book that seems to be written by an overly imaginative 15-year-old boy need look no further-- and this is a compliment, as it is the frame which Vincze uses to house his over-the-top hero stuck in a dystopian timeline. The book within the book reminded me of the film, "Gentleman Broncos," and my biggest criticism would actually be that I wanted more out of the fictional Richard Partridge author character to compliment the absurd story he is telling. Exploring more about the world of the "Author" I think would've added more depth to the book as a whole and could have enhanced more of the comedy of Hawke as the reader could see elements of what is happening in Partridge's real life taken to fantasy levels by his alter ego Hawke. Enjoyable, quick read.
