Soldier+X

Michael Rutigliano

100 Word Book Review The book I read was “Soldier X” by Don Wulffson. It is about a sixteen-year-old German boy named Erik, who illegally immigrated to Germany form Russia in the early 1930’s. He is drafted into the German army when he is fifteen years old. . Erik is then brought to a Russian hospital with Russian doctors, who think he is a Russian soldier after he impersonates one. The story is quite riveting. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good war and coming of age story.
