Desperately needs an editor

Decent story and character development, but the whole book is riddled with grammatical, usage, and historical errors. Glad I didn't pay for it.

well written WW I story

Well written description of what trench warfare must have been like. Though the story was predictable and some of the characters one dimensional

Great book. Good insight into WWI. The conclusion was, however, very predictable.
