As an alternative history book this one was fairly decent in its originality but has editing and storyline issues. To this book's credit it has a lot of action throughout its chapters, some is nonsensical to absurd, some not so bad. There are issues with weapon timelines and applications that are odd to the point of being slapstick humor. What you have is a very campy piece of war fiction devoid of sex high in violence and written in the syntax of war noir of the representative period. At 99cent's it was very fairly priced and I've no regrets of the money or time investment in reading it. I believe a good editor and a bit of rewriting could turn this into an excellent book but as it is this is on the level of being better than fair
