Freedom Pagoda
By Abafwetu
I thought this book was even better than Sammon's first - The God's Who Stunk. Freedom Pagoda delivers the inside view of a young man's life inside the military, serving in a foreign country, and facing the challanges of life and love for the first time. While it gives you a good look inside the military and political workings of warring parties, it also is reflective of one man's life that is touching, raw and real. It's a boy becomes a man story that will leave you wondering when the sequel will be available.
