rated 7: well worth reading
This book is packed full of military in-jokes. From the Sergeant Bilko style hero to the idiots at the top. With the bulk of the troops doing great work despite the bureaucratic rules.
I had a fear that it would become too much of a joke for its own sake, but the action -- and interest -- manages to come out on top. The humour is based on military clichés but is is independently funny... if you like absurdist humour :-)
Very enjoyable, ridiculously funny... or just ridiculous. With plenty of action, adventure and plot.
Read and enjoy.
