"After her older brother, Lucas, is wounded in action...17-year-old Gabriela Santiago decides to honor a promise to her brother by walking the Camino de Santiago.... Gabi's convincing teen voice guides readers through the complexity of emotions and inner struggle. Debut novelist Cowles uses the pilgrimage to spark moments of philosophic and theological reflection. The story will open a portal to families with injured soldiers and propel conversations about war, identity, philosophy, and hardship." -- Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
A survival story in which a girl keeps her vow to take a mountainous, hazardous trek with the boy she blames for the injury that put her soldier brother in a coma - A romance born out of tragedy, against unlikely odds, with a deeper look at contemporary problems in military families., Winner of the 2017 Colorado Book Award After her soldier brother is horribly wounded in Afghanistan, Gabriela must honor the vow she made: If anything ever happened to him, she would walk the Camino de Santiago through Spain, making a pilgrimage in his name. The worst part is that the promise stipulates that she must travel with her brother's best friend--a boy she has despised all her life. Her brother is in a coma, and Gabi feels that she has no time to waste, but she is unsure. Will she hesitate too long, or risk her own happiness to keep a promise? An up-close look at the lives of the children of military families, Beneath Wandering Stars takes readers on a journey of love, danger, laughter, and friendship, against all odds., Will she walk the longest walk? Or break her vow? - A survival story in which a girl keeps her vow to take a mountainous, hazardous trek with the boy she blames for the injury that put her soldier brother in a coma - A romance born out of tragedy, against unlikely odds, with a deeper look at contemporary problems in military families - Debut novelist with the kind of writing mastery that comes along only once in a list--if that--who can hook readers from the first sentence With her boyfriend back in the States and her brother in Afghanistan, Gabriella Santiago doesn't want to be stuck on a U.S. base in Germany. She wants to go home--but her father's been assigned to Army bases overseas as long as she can remember. Gabi's already unstable world is turned upside down when she learns that her brother has been wounded in action and fallen into a coma. Before he was injured, Lucas sent Gabi a cryptic message in the form of a Homeric epic and a strange request: if anything should happen to him, Lucas wants Gabi to fulfill his dream of conquering the Camino de Santiago, the ancient arduous pilgrimage of their family namesake that crosses northern Spain. The only catch? Gabi must make the journey with Lucas' best friend, Cain, a young soldier Gabi despises, who harbors dark secrets about what happened to Lucas in Afghanistan. What transpires on the road is a transformative journey filled with quirky Chaucerian characters and an unlikely romance between two people united by their loyalty to Lucas.

- e***n (392)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.
