A really good book in the GWOT timeline. It details some adventures the author went through and really shows the "Other side" of PMC work, as opposed to military stuff. It's interesting to read from this perspective, because I need some material for stories, and this has fit the bill with an arc that I'm writing for my military science fiction. What this book doesn't (unlike another book I read on the same subject) do is glamorize the life of a PMC operator. Sure, there's some glam, but it also comes at a cost, both personally and otherwise, so the author makes sure that point is driven home. War, regardless of national government or paid mercenary, always gets us all at some point; it's definitely a good book on the realities of mercenary life within those bounds. 5 out of 5 stars.
