When this book started even grimmer than the book before it, I started to wonder why I was voluntarily putting myself through this—again. But then the war ended and the reunions started happening, and I was like, "Oh yeah. That's why." Wally's story in particular just about makes me explode with happiness, and Alex has some tear-jerky moments too.
I loved these books as a teenager, and I'm grateful I've been able to read them again as an adult. As a kid I mostly loved the books for their stories, and I still do now, but I understand certain things a little better. The books mean even more to me now, which doesn't happen often. (I wish my adult re-read of the Work and Glory books had been this positive.) Dean Hughes certainly does this show more series justice—he was the right guy to tell this story. show less
