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.
