I must confess I only got this as I remembered the title from a film and it was free on Amazon for the Kindle. I have never read any Rudyard Kipling before.
The novel was pretty short too, you can read it in under two hours like me.
However I really enjoyed this and I was transported back to colonial sweaty India and I could feel the hussle and bustle of life there in my imagination.
The two men who go off to be Kings are funny and larger than life characters. To become Kings they go to Afghanistan where they encounter a hostile country once they transgress from their pact not to have women in their lives.
A nice novel to read quickly 7/10 for me.
