"I really liked it because it is an intense, detailed look at what war is like on the front lines (not, actually, that I would know), and because it is not a typical war hero story. The main character is, in fact, a coward. It emphasizes the brutality and absurdity of war."

    " Too much foul language and an intimate scene. The main character was not at all admirable and I couldn't relate to him. I read this book because it was the "One Book, One Denver" read, but I was not overly impressed by the selection (may have been selected because the book was written by a local author). "
