I saw a book by that author called "A Thousand Rising Suns" or something but only read it in line =).
Any recomendations?
EDIT: Never mind it was this book, I want to pick it up now.

I heard this book was great. I bought it. It's back in Michigan with lots of other books that I bought but have yet to read. silly Dana. imdb says that Marc Forster is the director and that it comes out in the US in limited release in November. I really enjoyed Finding Neverland.

Thank you, Tangent -- it is indeed a Marc Forster movie -- produced by Spielberg, evidently.
I know nothing about the author, sorry folks -- except that my son is reading a second book by him (maybe A Thousand Rising Suns?) and thinks the authored is INSIGHTFUL.
I did check Amazon for you -- but couldn't find it -- good luck!

Hey guys. The movie adaptation of the book is coming out on November 9 (can’t wait!!) and I ran across this really cool contest where you create a club and you win cooler stuff with the more members you have in your club. I created the Greater Minnesota Frozen Kite club and I’d LOVE to have as many members as possible, even if you’re not from Minnesota:) There are prizes for different levels of the clubs but the big one is if my club gets 200 members or more, I’m eligible to actually meet and have dinner with Khaled Hosseini!! This would be just awesome to win, so I’m trying to spread the word as much as I possibly can haha! The site is www.kiterunnermovie.com/club or if you just wanna find my group you can go here www.kiterunnermovie.com/club/phpdata/listofallgroups.php?pg=3&sort=location&mode=asc and scroll down until you see Greater Minnesota Frozen Kite. You can click on the right of it to join, so I hope many of you do! Thanks everyone!!

Thank you, moviemegamadman. I've passed this on to those I think would be interested. -- and now my curiosity (about both movie and author) is really peaked!
