Excellent book! I have been to Timisoara, Romania and the surrounding area twice on mission trips, and worked with pastors and others who experienced the hardships described in this book. I have recommended it to everyone else who is planning on visiting Romania, especially on a mission trip. The description of life in Romania both before and after the revolution is dead-on based on my experience and discussions with Romanians. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Romania.

A non-stop thrill ride from start to stop. It's got everything for the whole family! A complex blend of history, adventure, and faith that everyone can enjoy.

A stunning expository of an unfamiliar topic. Brennan describes the events in the life of a Romainian fugitive with breathtaking descriptions of a crumbling post-communistic society. This true story piques the interest of the reader in a relm of reality that is often overlooked in our comfortable American lives. Details Romainian dictator, Choukesku, overthrow with clear-cut accruacy. Simply amazing. Truly a high caliber biography for the adventure seeking reader.

This is a novel about a group of fundamentalist Christians trying to escape Romania through the forests and across rivers to Yugoslavia during the 1980s. I thought it was a travel book that would be useful in planning my trip to Romania and Bulgaria. I was very wrong. If you like novels from the Jerry Falwell press, you might enjoy this book. Otherwise, save your money. I must admit that I read only about 50 pages before I tossed it.
