As a boy growing up in Germany during Hitler's rise to power, Deiter is seduced by the pomp and circumstance of war. But as global hostilities intensify, Dieter is called upon to fight for his country in a conflict that he doesn't fully understand. With most of his family dead, Berlin in ruins, and the Russian army closing in, Dieter can no longer naively cling to his childhood beliefs. The world he is facing is brutal, dirty, and unforgiving, and the most he can hope for is the chance to survive. The second installment in the Fields of Conflict series, Flames of the Tiger will appeal to young readers aged twelve to fourteen.
