Praise
“Entertaining . . . [written with] a cocky, star-spangled, wide-angle feel, as if a subversive young novelist had decided to rewrite a Tom Clancy thriller after first piloting some nuclear submarines as a gonzo practice drill . . . hard to put down because of its rolling, seriocomic thunder and because of all the carnage, satiric and otherwise. . . A book that’s going to rattle some cages.”
—Dwight Garner, The New York Times
“A stimulating, disabused tale of corruption, incompetence, and careerism in uniform. A sometimes explosive, corrective to hagiographic accounts of America’s militarized approach to nation building.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Witty, insightful, scathing, appalling and inspiring—a must-read book on the Iraq war.”
—Kirkus (starred)
