I admit I was skeptical at first given only superficial knowledge of Hegseth’s background, but this book was both easy to read and incredibly effective. It is like hearing from a sharp and straightforward NCO explaining the stark situation yet simple solution that’s staring you in the face.

Memorable anecdotes and lessons in leadership. Great attempt by the author to highlight commonalities between successful teams. However, some conclusions felt forced or disconnected from situations described - the J&J chapter comes to mind. This may have been due to adjusting for readability, and the book is very readable.

Well-written story, especially well-written and quirky though believable characters that you really get to know as you read. However, some parts felt overly long, with questionable significance to the plot.

Another masterful book by Klavan that is impossible to put down and artfully executed. This latest entry leaves the reader reeling and contemplative once complete.

The book starts slow and strange, but it all builds into a riveting story with surprisingly deep insight into human nature, survival, and deprivation.

Honestly, the book left me questioning how this could have become a classic work of sci-fi. Main character is difficult to sympathize with, and the ‘science’ of the book, while imaginative, feels inconsistent. Was entertaining enough to pass the time, but didn’t land among the stars for me.

Lot of valuable details to color the more insidious notions about China that laymen hear about. Helps to explain the ‘why’ and ‘how’ behind the ‘what’ of China’s subsurface warfare on the U.S.

A refreshing take on China’s unrestrained methods of warfare that span across all domains, military and civilian, and deserve attention.

Reading this in 2024 almost 15 years after its publication makes Sowell appear as a prophet foretelling not only of that to which the world has recently borne witness but also of what is soon to come. Also valuable read for caution and wisdom towards exalting the intelligentsia.

Excellent world building, imagining near future scenarios, and writing. Marrs combines skillful application of science fiction and thriller elements into an engrossing story. However, my only criticism is that the measured build up seemed to be concluded rather hastily. Otherwise, still highly recommended.
