What an amazing writer! So many twists and turns it definetly kept the story moving. The idea of the Templar Knights and the secrets they kept has been written of a lot in books. This author put a new idea into things and kept the topic fresh and new feeling with the word choices and scene settings.
Very good read, quick too. I loved all the descriptors, and I felt like I was a part of it. My only complaint was that at some times I got TOO into the book and was getting mad or even angry at the situation these people were in and wanting them to fight back!
A slower start, and at times it felt too much like a filler book. I still found myself getting angry and too involved at parts though, hence the 4 stars. :)
I love a quick read graphic and this was no different. Though I read this and the first slower than most. It is such a great telling into the real story of the Holocaust and the atrocities people had to survive.
I recommend this book for adults and youth alike. I'm going to read it with my 9-year-old and we are going to talk about the historical nature of the story and how these images and stories reflect real life events.
Burying our history and the damaging and dangerous things that happened will only lead us to repeat them. We must remember, see, discuss, and learn about them so we can avoid that.
