Meet Ed Kennedy—underage cabdriver, pathetic card player, and useless at romance. He lives in a shack with his coffee-addicted dog, the Doorman, and he’s hopelessly in love with his best friend, Audrey. His life is one of peaceful routine and incompetence, until he inadvertently stops a bank robbery. That’s when the first Ace arrives. That’s when Ed becomes the messenger. . . .
Chosen to care, he makes his way through town helping and hurting (when necessary), until only one question remains: Who’s behind Ed’s mission?
Brilliant, brilliant book! While the language is a bit rough the message and story it has to tell more than makes up for it. It is a story of caring and compassion unlike any I have read before. Zusak is fromAustralia so there is a bit of ‘down under’ lingo which can be confusing.
