I liked the pace much better - - Dontai did not rush to wrap up the story as inthe first book. The... more info

from Harper Paperbacks
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I read this book on the heels of Chris Rose's "1 Dead in Attic: After Katrina." Chris Rose mentions this book toward the end of his, and I thought reading a positive story would be a good balance after reading the details of post-Katrina New Orleans. The story of 9/11 and the people of Gander,... more info

from Harper Perennial
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
This is an adequate survey of the F&I War. It's reasonably well-written and does a good job of placeing the conflict in it's larger context. If you're already familiar with the subject, however, you won't find anything new or original here.
The one thing that seemed strange to me was the... more info

Customer Review:
