Very well written book, narrator is fantastic. Wolf has gotten pushback for her stance on COVID policy, but I think history will show she was in the right the entire time.

Robert Spencer encapsulates the slow moving train wreck that was the Afghanistan War in this accessible and important book. He does a great job as always. I particularly liked the narrator.

I used to roll my eyes at references to the “deep state”. Whether we call it the Administrative State or the Deep State, there is no doubt in my mind that it’s the driving force in our government today. This book is interesting and very insightful in many respects.

The narration was superb!

I found myself so distracted--bored--that I kept having to go back and make sure I didn't miss anything critical to the plot. I usually didn't. I've heard many people regard this as one of the best popular books written over the last decade so I was excited to finally read--listen to--it. I almost gave up on it several times because it was painful to follow.

There is no doubt that Woodrell is a very skilled writer but the plot was just a mess. Maybe that's what life is like in the Ozarks and that was his point. The portraits of the characters he paints and the dismal life that these folks lead in the Ozarks was the book's strength. I just wish there was a more accessible story arc that I didn't have to wade through the rest of the book to find.

Better than the average work of fiction but I was disappointed.
