I kept finding myself screaming at the main character, Amir. The continual behavior of this character throughout the story drove me crazy. Of course, having the story told by the main character, keeps the reader aware that the story is one of regret, redemption and enlightenment. Though, the redemption is not as sweet as one would encounter in most fictional novels. I found the more true to real life events of the story with lack of full resolution to conflicts and characters... more meaningful than I initally expected. This book really opened my eyes to understanding more about Afganistan. I have been terribly ignorant about it's past, it's people, it's culture, and current state of affairs. I know that this novel doesn't give me the whole story. But, it opened a window for me and has encouraged me to learn more about a part of the world, a culture, and faith that is completely alien to me. I definitly recommend this to American readers. We are quite ignorant and need more insight than media and politics can give us.
Fun! A little heavy on the romance but it a great and unique adventure. Some really creative elements that make it a fun read. Great piratey adventure. The best of the trilogy, I think.
