Elliot Ackerman, 2015 Date Read: 7/10/22
Denoting or relating to an attack made on one's own side by forces regarded as neutral.
I enjoyed reading Ackerman's other entry on the List, 2034: a Novel of the Next War although it was frightening (and almost certainly prescient.)
This novel is equally well written and engaging, and equally frightening and heart-rending. Essentially, it illustrates how the West manipulates internal forces in Afghanistan to maintain an enemy to fight. I don't doubt this is correct. Especially as Ackerman served there and witnessed it all himself.
Heartbreaking.
Length: 242 pages in hardback
Rereadability: it is very sad so, unlikely
Classic: I think it will be in the future when we are looking back on the destruction of the Middle East
