内容简介

Spencer Morgan And Dieter Hedrick Are On Opposite Sides Of The War And Fighting For The Same Thing.At the age of fifteen, Dieter's blind devotion gets him promoted from Hitler Youth into the German army. Dieter's determined to prove his allegiance and bravery all costs.Spence, just sixteen, drops out of his Utah high school to begin training as a paratrooper. He's seen how boys who weren't much in high school can come home heroes, and Spence wants to prove to his friends and family that he really can be something.Their worst fear was that the war would end too soon -- that they wouldn't get the chance to prove themselves. But when they finally see the action they were hoping for, it's like nothing they could have ever imagined.

作者简介

After high school, I attended Weber State University, left to serve as a Mormon missionary in Germany for two-and-a-half years, then returned to finish a degree in English. I went on for a Masters in Creative Writing and a PhD in literature at the University of Washington, in Seattle, and then became a professor of English at Central Missouri State University. But I only lasted eight years. I wanted to be a writer. I took a leave of absence for a year and that year stretched out to a career. I published my first book in 1979, and now have published more than eighty. (I’d say exactly how many, but I can’t remember. I have the same problem with my age sometimes, but I do know I was born in 1943. You can do the math.)
