    Is an 80-point rating okay? Absolutely fantastic. The plot is tight, with no major flaws. It's the best military-themed novel I've ever read. The protagonist seems to have a cheat code—an amazing memory. Serving the country, it's so inspiring! (Being a businessman without being part of the system makes things easier.) There aren't any cheesy or pretentious scenes; even those with sensitive skin can enjoy it.
