A nice though wholly unmemorable look at the Middle Eastern front of WWI. (

Surprising and surprisingly sad. You may want to keep the tissues handy. Full review: http://www.canadianauthors.net/s/slade_arthur/megiddos_shadow.php (

16 year old Edward Bathe feels he needs to join the Great War after his brother is killed in battle by the Germans. Edward is given horse training duty in England where he meets and falls in love with Emily, a young nurse. Edward and his horse, Buke join a mounted regiment and get shipped to Palestine to fight the Turks. He finds out Emily dies, his horse is shot, he is considered a hero, and he regrets killing a young soldier, all in the last section of the book, which is the best part. (

young boy enlists illegally to go and fight after older brother killed in WWI, works with horses and eventually makes his way to the war in Palestine; beautiful description; bit of a hokey romance; fresh look at WWI fighting; exciting action, some gore (
