The author used a different technique than I've read before, telling the same circumstances from each main character's point of view. That was difficult to understand at first, but I thought the author made good use of it in allowing the reader to see each main character's motivation.It was an interesting story. Some main character's chapters had nuggets of information that revealed what one character had been told by commanders versus what another character had been told by administrators.  The two stories were not always the same, with various peripheral characters manipulating and scheming.It did end rather abruptly.  The whole story was jarring with the constant perspective shifts so maybe I shouldn't have been surprised.Overall it was an interesting story, if dark and violent.  It is not a "feel-good" story but it couldn't be. Be prepared to not have a "happily ever after" ending.I would read something else by this author.
