I hadn't realized it was a short story (or novella).
I found it an interesting allegory about tribalism still affecting the middle east today. (

This is the first book I think I've read from Kipling. It is a quick read based on historical fact with adventure, well built characters, light comedy, audacious plans, and colonisation. (

*$&@- x: this means I'm really pissed that I took notes throughout the reading of this book and then, with the push of a wrong button, lost them. (

Short adventure story of a pair of British rouges trying to set themselves up as kings. (

Setting Goals and achieving them.
Setting rules to live by when you gain it.
It is like a code between two brothers. No betrayal, absolute loyalty. (
