Tommo and Hawk by Bryce Courtenay
5.0

It's been a long time since I read this book, but I remember how brilliantly Courtenay treated the history of New Zealand during the section of the book that is set in New Zealand. I myself am from New Zealand, and I am slightly ashamed to say that New Zealand history has always seemed so bland and uninteresting to me. Courtenay managed to make it vibrant and interesting.
That's not the only good thing about this story, not by a long shot, but it has been years and years since I read Tommo And Hawk, so that's really the only thing I can remember...
