The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart by Jesse Bullington


Bullington, Jesse The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart, 425 pgs. Orbit, 2009. Language - PG-13 (48 swears, 16 "f"), Sexual Content - PG; Violence - PG; Hegel and Manfried are sons of an infamous robber. Hegel and Manfried are the worst of the worst and when they decide to go into the "family business" they start off by settling a score with Heinrich. They kill his family, burn down his house, and take supplies, they leave him tied up on the ground and go on into the forest. Heinrich is found latter by some village people and they pursue the brothers to get rid of them forever. I didn't really enjoy reading this book; it was too boring. It didn't catch my interest so I spent the whole time reading the words and falling asleep but not getting anything out of it. MS, HS - OPTIONAL. Reviewer: CCH
