The Snow Gods

The author is unusual in that he handles a novel with a huge cast through several generations in a fascinating manner that holds one's interest without confusion. We are perfectly able to differentiate between characters while the book is impossible to put down. I cannot think of another author with the power to plot, write, create characters, and hold the reader as Burkholz does. I have also read his "The Sensitives" about people who can read minds and it is also similarly rare, thought-provoking, and different. This book is a genuine and rare treat for both men and women readers.

I first read this book when I was in high school, and have gone back and read it at least 3 times. It follows the Prinz/Prince family through WWI and II. It is really interesting.
