A real rough listen if you have any military background. The pop culture references also wear thin real fast. This book should have been right up my alley but I was cringing every few minutes from bungled jargon or dated nods to gamer culture. It felt like someone’s self published first novel that needed an editor or at minimum a proofread by someone who knows Navy Seals would never call themselves soldiers. To top it off, the whole story rests on the assumption that the Space Force wouldn’t outlive the Trump presidency which reveals a naive understanding of the situation on the part of the author.
