British airman Dym Ingleford is convinced that the young German prisoner, Max Eckermann, is his brother Anthony, who was kidnapped years before. Raised in the Nazi ideology, Tony has by chance tumbled into British hands.

Dym has brought him back, at least temporarily, to the family he neither remembers nor will acknowledge as his own. As Tony keeps attempting to escape, his stubborn anger is whittled away by the patient kindness he finds at the White Priory. Then, just as he is resigning himself to stay with this English family, a new chance suddenly opens for him to return home - to Germany!

Absolutely WONDERFUL Story!!

I have put off writing a review of this book for years as I have doubted my ability to do it justice. But I'm finally giving it a go:

Put simply, this book is amazing. I heartily agree with "A Kid's Review" that wishes there were a thousand star option... it really is that good. While it's obviously geared toward youth readers, I'm above that age now and still find it just as captivating as ever (and I've read it... ohhhh five times or more??) Definitely one of my favorite books of all time.

Others have covered the main points fairly well, so I'll just say that when I read it for the first time, I expected it to be more of a mystery as to Max/Tony's identity. It's not, but that doesn't make it any less of a page-turner! I couldn't put it down the first time through, and the ending takes an unexpected, heart-pounding twist. I also love the setting of mid-WW2 Britain, and this book is a wonderful look at what life was like back then.

Overall though, what really stands out about this book is the characters and relationships. The author, Constance Savery, has an amazing ability to create characters that are immensely intriguing and believable. There's a wide variety of characters in the Ingleford home, and you'll find everything from humorous exchanges between characters to very deep conversations, confrontations, and mostly - a brotherly love that is relentless and defies an enmity even as great as the Axis vs. Allied powers. Dymory, the older brother, is one of the most amazing literary characters in any book I have read. Somehow, he is not the typical "flawed character" He is, is on the contrary, remarkably good, but the story is always more exciting and interesting when he's around. The author never sacrifices the "believable-ness"/reality of the character, and despite Dym's goodness, he is somehow the most intriguing character in the story. And then the relationship between Dym and Tony is just wonderful as well! I don't want to give things away...but this author has beautiful ability to *show* these characters, their interactions, and thoughts in such a vivid way that you are immersed in the story. You just HAVE to meet these characters and experience the story for yourself. You'll wish they were real once you do.

Sooo.... what are you waiting for?? Go read this book!!!! (Then, once you're done see if you can get your hands on a copy of some of Savery's other books: Reb and the Redcoats, Emeralds for the King, Dark House on the Moss... they're all pretty amazing!)

This is one of those books that you never want to end!

It's a war story.
It's a love story.
It's about two countries, two brothers, and a brotherly love that will never let go.

Flying Officer George Dymory Ingleford is a man with a mission. Since his baby brother Anthony was kidnapped at 18 months old, young 'Dym' has never given up his hope or his search. Now an officer in the RAF, he can no longer take his search into war-torn Germany where he believes Tony, who would now be 12 years old, to have been taken.
But unexpected circumstances bring Max Eckermann into England, instead, where Dym identifies him as his lost little brother and takes him home.
Max is a 'thorough-going little Nazi', in the words of Dym's brother, Ginger Ingleford. Max is by no means convinced that he is the lost Ingleford boy, and demands to be returned to his beloved Germany - impossible in the tangle of war. So he undertakes to disturb the Ingleford household, attempt regular escapes, and hate Dym with all of his heart...or so he thinks. The Inglefords all love and accept him without question - but it is Dym who he knows he can never escape...Dym, with the steely hands that will never let him go. But he will never, never, never believe that he is Anthony Ingleford.

This story is unmatched for unforgettable characters, beautiful imagery, and heart. Written during World War II, and before it's conclusion, it gives you a picture of wartime Britain that makes you feel like you have visited time and place. You feel the courage and acceptance of the people in the most difficult circumstances, the steadfastness of weary men and women carrying on. You meet the young men of the RAF - 'The cream of the youth of England' - who, outgunned and undermanned, continue the fight.
From the lively, fun-loving Ingleford family to Dym's RAF friends to the very passengers in the trains, the characters in this book are believable, life-like, and worthy of emulation. It is written in a style that draws you in and makes you wish you could meet them all in person. And the ending is complete satisfaction, leaving you with no doubts, no fears, and the strongest desire for just one more chapter.

We read this book, laughed, cried...
And went back to page one.
So will you.

Remembrance

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 19, 2021

I first read this book some 66 years ago when I was the dameage as 'Max'. Max's transformation into Tony fascinated the then 12 year old me. I was fascinated by the stories told by my aunts and uncles and their remembrances of the war and avidly read anything I could find about it.
The references to victory Gardens and refugee children were similar to stories told about children and others that were seen in our area of New York . No, they weren't coming from bombed towns and cities of our country, but they were refugees from Europe fleeing the carnage.
Max's story stayed with me for all these years and I searched for a copy of Enemy Brothers for at least forty years until kindle books had it show up on their ebook list. The tale is as exciting as I remembered and well worth the longsesrch to find it again
