I picked this book because I had heard it was a good book because of our Literature Circles. Most of the people reading this book said it was very good, so I decided to read this book.
This book is about two young men in the army. One is Russian, and one is German. They are both fighting against each other to try to save or destroy Stalingrad.
Vasily is russian and he is a machine gunner is his platoon. He is very quite most of the time.
Conrad is German and he is assigned to a tank with other people. He is also quite, but also a thinker.
Sergei is a cop, but from what I have read and heard, he is a boy when Vasily, and Conrad are fighting, then at the beginning of the book, he is old and at the war torn city of Stalingrad.
So far the book is very interesting, and very action packed.
