Title: Not the Best Book
Review: Hard-to-follow, not too exciting, and it dragged. Forbes' novel is slow-paced and un-realistic. Although it stated great moments in history, the characters are too involved. Johnny is a teenage apprentice, and then he is in war dealing with some of the top revolutionary leaders. Set in revolutionary time, the characters are living in a perfect world and doing ordinary things in the beginning of the book. Then, there is a large leap in the middle of the book and the character's are in war. The book would be much better if the author concentrated on making fictional parts seem more realistic. In that time, people were not as happy-go-lucky. I would recommend this book to people who like a boring historical fiction book.
