I would think this has to be the most detailed and comprehensive book out there on the war between the “Coalition” and it’s partners and ISIS; well researched and narrated too. However, my one criticism is that it could’ve benefited from more context on the YPG, SDF and the Syrian side of things in general. It’s clear that the author knows a lot about and probably specializes on the Iraq War and US presence in that country, and this provides for an extremely well researched side of things on the Iraq-focused chapters. While I’d say that the Syrian side of the book is relatively very well researched, that side of topic itself is still generally a lot more obscure than the Iraqi side and is usually only touched on vaguely in American media, so it requires a bit more research by the reader to paint a clear picture. That being said I learned a lot all around and will probably listen to it again.
