Marilyn H. reviewed Ablaze : The Story of the Heroes and Victims of Chernobyl on + 36 more book reviews
This book took me a while to get through, but I enjoyed the ride. One drawback was the many characters to keep track of, with beautiful but difficult to remember Russian names; the author does inclues a cast of characters at the beginning of the book. At times it dragged, but for the most part it was a good read and I learned a lot. The book encompasses the whole story, not only about the actual Chernobyl disaster, but events leading up to it, and all that went what wrong with the communist system that lead up to the accident at Chernobyl in 1986.
