Fallen Angels is an intense, gritty Vietnam war story that offers plenty to think about. This is a rare book because it does not glamorize the violence of war. It is portrayed as it is: sad and brutal. There is lots of strong language, including tons of uses of words like f-ck and s-it. There is also some sex talk between soldiers and references to venereal diseases. Overall, Fallen Angels should be read by anyone mature enough for it.

This is one of my favorite books, but has tons of swearing. Still a must read for war-historical fiction lovers.

its such an awsome book.. it makes u reflect on thoughts and actions!!

i love this book because it show how hurtful the veitnam war was to soilders and other people it affected.

I love this book and it never gets old. I read it over and over again. But i would not recommend book for kids under the age of 13. They might not understand what the book is saying, and the book does give you graphic details about war.

It shows people how the world was at that time, and portrays the war from a different point of view

It is not a childs book but its really good it tells the story of a kid joining the army and wat it was like for him during vietnam i thought the author did a really good

Im 13 now and i think that anyone who gives this book a bad reveiw is a hypocrit. This is the REALITY of vietman. There was friendly fire and massacres and terror and gore and language and racism. I personally think that the hypocrytical adult review was good. Sure there are other books but this one is the one with the most truth. So get out of the fantisey that war is romantic 'cause its not. The guy's brother died in the conflict in southeast asia so give him a break. He writes good poems too.

I read this book a while ago and it actually changed my perspective on things. like for the veterans who fought in this war and others past. and the respect that was not given for there duties. it really made me think about things. War is bad, and as much as we want it not to happen it does. the sad part is that the soldiers who fight are usually young and innocent. some may have never voted. Another thing is that others may hate the vulgar language in the novel but face the facts. when your young you use words like that. all in all this is a great book.
