Editorial Reviews:
A deluxe collector's edition of the phenomenally bestselling The Kite Runner, filled with striking and memorable photographs that bring Khaled Hosseini's compelling story to life.

Since its publication in 2003, The Kite Runner has shipped over four million copies and spent more than two years on the New York Times bestseller list. Taking us from Afghanistan in the final days of the monarchy through the horrific rule of the Taliban, The Kite Runner is the heartbreaking story of the unlikely and inseparable friendship between a wealthy Afghan boy and the son of his father's servant, both of whom are caught in the tragic sweep of history. Published in the aftermath of America's invasion of Afghanistan, Khaled Hosseini's haunting writing brought a part of the world to vivid life that was previously unknown.

Now this beautifully produced, collectible hardcover enhances Khaled Hosseini's story with unforgettable color and black-and-white photographs of the people of Afghanistan and their surroundings, further illustrating the world in which the story is set and heightening the already powerful experience of reading this incredible book.

Summary: The Voice
Comment: Awesome book, I so wanted to take this young man outside and strangle him! The rollercoaster this story takes you on is great. I felt so much anger toward the main character. How could someone be so cold! Then sorrow when death entered the story. And the end was an wonderful release. This is a very intense read. I must say I had to put this book down several times...but only for a few minutes.

Summary: Beautifully touching story!
Comment: There are few books that have moved me in all my life, & Kite Runner is definitely one of them. I was so moved, I found my eyes tearing up occasionally. The author did an extraordinary job with the story. It was beautifully written & powerfully moving. I did not want the story to end. Listen to the audio version if you can. The author himself is the narrator & he does a great job story telling as well! I highly recommend this book!

Summary: Heart wrenching tale of friendship and growing up!
Comment: Every time i think about Amir and Hassan the hazara boy - my heart warm's up!
The emotional roller coaster that Amir rides even now makes me think that this is a memoir by Khaled and not a fiction.
the Taliban and the Afghan setting are portrayed wonderfully. Amir's insensitivity towards Hasan after his rape and the conflicts that he goes through are dumbfounding.
I am going to regret putting this out to the world but - here you go! I cried for Amir's immaturity and wept for Hassan's maturity, the phrase "For you a thousand times, Agha!" is carved on my soul for eternity.
It is a must read for friendship and loyalty from a man's perspective - and Khaled Hosseini is in my favorite writers list - with the top guns!
