The main characters for Measure of the Earth are two 12 year old boys growing up in the 1950s. I'm 60 years old but I had no trouble imagining myself in these boys trials, tribulations and adventures. There were times I was afraid to turn the pages. That is a very rare occurrence for me nowadays, but thats a real indicator that you've been sucked into the story. The author is so good at getting into the heads of his characters and describing their thoughts and whats going on that it just blew me away. Its one of those books I just couldn't put down and it was completely impossible to anticipate where the story was going but it was all so believable.
Its so hard finding something of this caliber that I often find myself going back to read an old favorite every couple of years (books like Tom Clancy Without Remorse, or Term Limits by Vince Flynn). This is a book that I'll doubtless add to that list of favorites to go back and read again and again.
Thanks to the author for such a fantastic read!… (plus d'informations)
