Book Reviews of King Rat
Book Review: a place in Singapore, live a king above the rest...
Summary: 4 Stars
This book i read before long time ago, but i bought the new cover edition and would be reading this soon. Is a fantastic story about this war hero call 'King Rat' how he is so superior over the other soldiers in a POW camp in my country Singapore.
2nd time read - would have to say still a great book. Peter and the King of Changi POW camp are the 2 characters that have gone through much of it all; trading in black market, selling rat meat, and other small business that made them the survivor of the lot in the camp. They are not fighting the japs, but their will to live a proper life towards the end of this war is over. At the end, we part with the King turning to his own lonesome when everyone is going home. He is no more the King but just like them to be back home. Peter would have understand him and had wish the war did not end to part their friendship.
