Nice return to form after Cibola Burn's clunker storyline.

Read this now. Then read it again.

Very funny, super dark and mildly unnerving ending. Winner.

This was 75 percent exactly the book I thought it was going to be and then 25 percent something much more affecting that I was totally unprepared for. So different than the Old Man's War books but in a way that turned out great.

Well, that was shattering.

Good but uneven. Was hoping it would end up like a short primer on the war. It's not quite that, but there are a few really good essays in here.

This got so incredibly good at the end when it became a personal story. The rest of the time I felt like there was a much more complete book to be written by someone else. Probably only after Putin dies and records possibly become more available.

Overwritten in the best possible way.

Really informative with lots of interesting reporting from places around the world, but went on far too long.

More sigh.
