A remarkable story. A bond so great that not even love could break it. Brothers from birth and through arms. This book was both a sorrow and a pleasure to read.

Like a summers day in a meadow, and it rains. So sad and yet so beautiful.

Finally getting what you wanted all your life, but at the greatest cost you could fathom.
Although bitter sweet. It is that, what makes the book beautiful

Loved the story line, read this one before and totally forgot how it ended. Good read, lower rating is for the lower reading level.
