Set during the final 24 hours before the armistice at 11 a.m. on 11th November 1918, the story follows a German storm trooper, an American airman and a British Tommy. Their destinies converge during the death throes of the first ever conflict to spread across the globe. War becomes incredibly personal as nationality and geography cease to matter to each of these teenagers on the Western Front, and friendship becomes the defining aspect of their encounter. But who will live and who will die before the end of the day?

Set in the scene of world war one, three men take on war, one an American airman, another a British Tommy and the last a German storm trooper. Eleven Eleven seemed a bit plotless and all over the place. The first few chapters were confusing since it's based off of three different views it was hard to remember who was who. It's critical to have the first few chapters hold the readers attention and be interesting since that's how readers base whether or not they'd like to read the rest of the book I personally would have put the book down. The best part of the book I felt were the last few chapters, though I felt it wasn't that great either way. I would say this book is for younger readers who want to find out more about the war in a simplified version and I would recommend it to people who are more interested in revolution and war.
