Another King-esque style book. And, it was great. The story is about a 13 year old boy who finds a nazi was criminal living in his own town. The boy black mails the man into telling him everything about his days running concentration camps. It turns into a relationship where hey are both trapped with secrets about one another and haunts them for the next 4 years. The story takes a few dark turns and ends in a style that King is best known for. Should you read it? yes, if you like Stephen King's view of the world (dark, it's dark and his fiction can seem real at times). He does a great job of writing point of view from the boy's angle and and can write from the POV of an 80 year old man jsut as well. Even if you don't know his writings too well read it anyhow to get a taste in a short story format. ]]>

After seeing the movie several times, I kept hearing Morgan Freeman's vocie when I was reading it. Fun read, and the movie did it a great justice by staying true to the story. Although, they made some changes when they transferred the book to the big screen but both versions were still a delight. Highly recommend this for anyone interested in a simple yet deep story about pushing forward in the most difficult of times. ]]>
