Title: Not that bad...
Product review: This book was recommended to me by an evangelical friend, and at first I dismissed it as one of his occassional attempts to convert me. But I'm a sucker for military fiction, so I gave it a try.The result? Not impressed. The book promises "technical accuracy", and you get that in spades, though I'm quite sure why we need to know that the M4A1 is indeed four inches shorter than the M16. In fact, there was quite a lot of unnecessary technical detail. The Simonov SKS is chamberef in 7.62, but why do we need to know that?I found the whole book very turgid and lifeless, and it seemed to me like yet another "LB" cash grab. As for the story itself, well, I follow Fred Clark, so I read this story with a cynical eye. It had me laughing at the utter absurdity of it all at several points.
