Better than I originally thought!
The summary doesn't really do the book justice. This is an amazing book! You experience the guilt of a young brother and the confusion of puberty. It's really a buildungsroman, as in it's basically a story about growing up. I warn you it is kind of slow to start, but once you get a few chapters into it, it's hard to put the book down! I definately recommend God of War by Marisa Silver.

An unforgettable story of the joys and burdens of family ties
The gripping story of 12 year old Ares Ramirez,his loving but troubled family scratching out a life at the edge of the barren Salton Sea, and his desperate efforts to find his own path in a haunting and desolate landscape. A must for lovers of the mystical Southern California landscape and anyone caught in the loving net of close family ties.
