Summary: What I think of the Lost Prince
Comment: This is one of my very favorite books. The writing is excellent, as well as the content. There is both mystery and excitement through the whole story. I have never found a book I liked like this before.

Rating: 5
Summary: A great book with a great story
Comment: which is not, by the way, about drafting children into warfare. The boy at the heart of the story has a great personal responsibility to his country, which is torn by a civil war. Like Frodo heading into Mordor, or just about any children's fantasy, he does have to set off on a journey involving a great deal of personal danger--one only he, and his stalwart companion (his 'crippled' companion, in a book written long long ago I might add) could accomplish.

I borrowed this book from my sister--and had to buy her a new one. I've been through several copies myself and it is always a great read, one which never fails to engage the imagination.

Summary: The Balkans will always be a mess.
Comment: This book is located in an unidentified eastern european state but the implications point to the Balkans and Bosnia/Serbia. The novel is an overy romantic tale of instilling race-hatred and drafting children into warfare. I love F.H.B.'s well known novels but this one frightened me. Today's newpaper front page is full of orphaned child soldiers from eastern europe,Rwanda and Sudan that are not really very different from the main characters of this book. Do not put this book into the hands of young children, it needs to be read in historical context.
