This book was harsh and yet the unnamed soldier gained a lot of insight into himself especially when he had to torture other prisoners. I was 17 when Viet Nam and the draft ended but would have gotten an agricultural deferment. I can't imagine how this man in the story went from seminary to the brutal hell he managed to live through. Based on a true story which made it even more engrossing and real, the story was gut wrenching .

The Particolored Unicorn (Paperback) by Jon DeCles
All the young Marquis Piswyck needs is beautiful Miranda, who has been carried off to Far Bermuda by her wicked Uncle Smagdarone (the Great?).
To rescue her he will have to get passed an impenetrable wall of man-eating gelatin. Of course he gets help and hindrances along the way from an outrageous cast of charters. There are trolls, hang glider battles, great green sharks, gymnastics in swordplay, Black Elves, a giant chartreuse septapus named Ralph, and a war in which the most important weapon is perhaps the umbrella.
And best of all he has written the sequel "Storm Wars!" I can't wait to get my hands on it:) ***** (5 stars)
