Summary: Soldier X - A Review
Review: Soldier X is a bone-chilling tale about one young, brave, German soldier known only as X fighting in the front lines of World War II. While on his first post, the Russian army launches a full scale attack on the German front, yielding deadly success. He fires everything he has at the millions of Russian soldiers and tanks, but is not successful. Suffering major concussions, X opens his eyes to find himself in a very shallow ditch covered with a ten ton disabled Russian battle tank. Having a Russian background, he hears a enemy general barking orders at the mechanics to get the tank operational again. Frantic, he quickly surveys the ditch, noticing a dead Russian soldier only a few yards away. With much difficulty, he strips himself of his German uniform and quickly puts on Russian's uniform. The tank becomes operational, and the wounded German soldier is spotted. He is taken to a local hospital, and is now deep behind enemy lines. After a few days, the hospital is bombed which forces him and the nurse he is in love with, Tamara to flee in panic. For the next few months, they traveled through forest after forest, field after field, not knowing where they were going or how they would get there. The journey was not easy, but after being thought of as spies and teetering on the edge of death, the finally made it back to Germany. Two years later on X's 18th birthday, he would marry Tamara.

Summary: Soldier Review
Review: Soldier X is a very good world war two story telling about a German boy drafted into the Hitler Youth Group and was heading into a Russian battle field. He gets trapped behind enemy lines and makes a riskey move to stay alive.
This is a compelling and gratifying war book, that is so good you don't want to put it down. On a Scale of one to ten, ten being the best, I give this Don Wulffson novel a ten.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Soldier X is AWESOME!!
Review: Soldier X was one of the best books that I have ever read (and I've read a lot of books!). It was so touching and realistic that I actually cried during parts. But even though it was sad it was still exciting and interesting! It was well written and it captivated my attention right away. I just couldn't put it down! Everything was so realistic. X was extremely lifelike especially since he and Tamara were created in the image of real people. It was very easy to relate to them and thier decisions. Although this book was written for children, I think that teenagers and adults would find it an awesome book too!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: A soldier behind enemy lines
Review: Soldier X, by Don Wulffson takes place during World War II. The main character, Erik Brandt is fifteen years old, turning 16 when he is drafted to fight for the German army. Soon after being drafted he received his mission briefings, and was sent to re-supply, and reinforce the 15th Rifle Corps of the Forth division at Tarnapol. Once he arrives, he is sent down to the front lines. Here, a day later the Russians broke through the lines, and took over the fort. Erik was badly wounded, but since he knew how to speak Russian fluently, he dressed in a Russian uniform and went over to the Russian soldiers. He was then taken to a makeshift hospital where he regained his health and eventually fell in love with a nurse by the name of Tamara. At the hospital, Tamara also finds out that Erik is German. Soon, the war's fighting comes into the city, and the hospital is forced to evacuate. One of the trucks taking the wounded is destroyed by a rocket shell, and because of this Erik, Tamara, Tamara's stepmother Zoya, and a soldier assigned to guard the hospital. During the attack of the city, both Zoya and the Soldier were killed by mortar fire, and just Erik and Tamara had to survive wandering through the forests of Russian, Germany, and Czechoslovakia. They decided that they wanted to go live in America. While traveling through Germany, they encountered a large German platoon that was supposed to stop the Russian offensive. After escaping the platoon, they came accross a town where American soldiers were positioned. The soldiers biacidentally shot Erik and Tamara, and took them to an American hospital. After partially recovering, both Erik and Tamara are reunited, and as the book comes to an end; Tamara begins to cry, and looks past Erik being German. I would recommend Soldier X to teens, and adults of all ages. The intensity of the story allows you to become a part of World War II, and I truly believe that it gives new meaning and insight to the actual events that took place during the war.

Summary: Soldier X Rocks My Socks!
Review: There comes a point in a person's life when they are lucky enough to encounter a different, awsomely unique book that is so riveting it stays in their minds immediately after reading it. That, my friends, is Soldier X! I have only encountered 2 books that have had this impact on me, this being 1 of them. So don't be stupid; you'll be fairly surprised that you wind up finishing it when it felt as though you just picked it up.

Summary: Awesome Book
Review: This book is one of the best books ive ever read. It gets really bloody, gorey, and intense, but is so suspensful. it also describes the horrors of World War 2 with blow off limbs, tons of blood, and the like. It is also a love story though.

Summary: scary and gross
Review: This book was very horrifing. It sounded very gross that they would take dead bodys stab them with a boyonet, lift the body up so that the body would dangle and skewered. I thought it was smart that he dressed like a Russian so he couldn't be killed while spying. So you can see that this book is for people who like gross adventures and a book never to be read before bed!
[ will give nightmares]!
