Reviews

[Robert]

Read it over and over till the pages fell out

[Piotr Kalemba]

it was quite engaging and fun to read, but not as captivating as the first book in the John Bober saga.

[Kate]

I couldn’t get enough of this brilliant adventure story. John Bober courageously led his followers towards a decent future.

An adventure story written by Arkady Fiedler, author of Squadron 303 The Story Of The Polish Fighter Squadron With The R. A. F.. Rather good book. Like Tom Sawyer.
