Elijah is determined to be number one. The best there is at long range sniping. It is his ambition, his goal in life. He revels in the glory of being one step above everyone else, a noble among the common folk. He is the Knight of the battlefield with Pawns at his beckons. This is why when he heard of "Peggy," another Indian sniper just like him, he became obsessed. Obsessed to defeat the score of the "legendary sniper." For Elijah, being second place is not sufficient. He wants the sole recognition for long range killing in the war. He wants his name to go down in history and be revered by others. He wants the thrill of victory, of being the best, of being the paragon of what a sniper should be.
Wow. I have read all your posts and one word i have to say is, "Excitement". I love the competitive nature of warfare in this book. It's almost like an action-packaged story engaging audiences. Good Luck Reading!
