Reviews

[Askatasuno]

Feia molt de temps que no gaudia tant una lectura.

[Thomas Lord]

I really enjoyed this one. The descriptions of the author's injuries and treatment are fascinating as well as horrifying . Highly recommended.

My English aunt’s cousin was badly burned in a crash and was a member of the Guinea Pig Club at Queen Victoria Hospital. She lost contact with him after the war, so in the name of research, I’m back to reading books with fighter planes on the cover like in first grade!

(Alan didn’t make an appearance, but it was interesting enough.)
