Let me add that this is a very readable book. As I was
scanning some missing pages for Amber, I was reading
in between them, and the reading went bery
quickly--and was interesting.

Another thing abnout this book, especially if you did
see the movie--it tells what happened to Paul and his
family, as well as other folks, afterward. I found
myself, as the end of the movie, wanting to know more
than the brief line or two that it gave about his
life.
