This chronicles the life of a boy soldier in Sierra Leone form age 13 to 15. From a peaceful boy to a proficient killer, nothing is left to the imagination. It then describes his rehabilitation back to a normal teenager. Fascinating.
Read the book for a project for uni. Not a book I would of read otherwise, is a heartbreaking book. A bit gruesome in parts. Well written, easy read. Really makes you think about how horrible some people's lives can be in the war.
