    I recommend this book. It's a non-system, non-fantasy, ensemble-style, action-packed war novel. The premise is fresh: the protagonist is reborn into a card world and uses cards to kill the Japanese invaders. The beginning is a bit grievous, even tear-jerking, but the plot becomes increasingly gripping and engaging. Enjoy reading, and thank you for your support!
