There are diverse perspective within this book, and I do not think there is any negative aspect. The book has an Intriguing concept, and I love the plot. The book revolves around Steve's life, and I hope that he uncovers the hidden thing that he doesn't know. My overall rating for this book is 4 out of 4 stars.

The book has an interesting storyline which dates back to the 90s but my overall rating of this book would be 3 out of 4 stars because it contains a lot of errors and was too focused on one character.

The novel piqued my interest. I particularly enjoyed Steve's character, and how he strived to uphold justice despite working with corrupt officials. The author depicted the struggle of a righteous cop who wants to keep the peace and protect the people while being forced to follow their regulations.
It's a historical romance, and I appreciated how the author balanced the two. It also includes topics about politics and corruption. The writing style was clear and exact in presenting the issue he wishes to portray. I would absolutely suggest it to others since this novel taught me a lot of things, such as how viewing everything from one perspective may lead to being misled and just seeing a portion of the truth. Seeking a new perspective on people's lives is what helps us comprehend our life.

Overall, I thought this was a fantastic novel. I found this book's cover to be its best feature. It was attractive and well-designed. I didn't dislike a single component of the book in any way. This book's writing is remarkable and easy to understand, in my opinion. The book is classified as fiction. Historical events do have a feature, though. Additionally, the title and cover were carefully chosen to complement the content of the book. I'd recommend this book to people who enjoy reading fiction because it's a wonderful one. They'll enjoy it.

I'd certainly give the book a perfect 4 stars. Its presentation is nice and the themes are well-pronounced. It is nicely written overall. I don't think there is justification for a lower rating, really.

I loved the book. It's getting a 4star rating from me. When I read the official review, I got so hooked I had to read it, and I wasn't disappointed at all. The book cover was appealing, the plot was properly developed, and the characterization was admirable. Every character was naturalistic. The themes in the book were filled with lessons as well. This is a book I believe everyone should read. It shows the significance of war on individual lives.

The author writing style is very graceful, The Vietnam War is the subject of this historical fiction book, which further contains some fascinating facts. And it wasn't just about the war; it was also about the protagonist Steve, his love life, and the consequences of his choice. He decides to join the police force despite being aware of his friends' dislike of it due to its violence, and this decision caused some conflict with both his friends and himself. Although I only read the sample and not the complete book, I believe this book deserves a rating of 4 out of 4. For fans of historical fiction who can withstand the violence it depicts, this book is best.

The book is very raw. It’s depictions of many of the activities (brutality and sex) are graphic and hard-hitting, so this isn’t for everyone. However, the journey that Steve goes on is very eye-opening, both for Steve and the reader which I liked. The biggest thing for me is, how do you stand up for what you believe is right when everyone around you believes it is wrong and would rather keep their heads down. Even the supposed side of right is full of ignorance and joining in because everyone else is.

Post by Fredrick Felix Mnjala Maneno »

I completed this book about a week ago and I can't get it out of my mind. I feel it addresses more than just the Vietnam war and other wars in general. Steve and his girlfriend and friends felt like their lives had been overturned by the goings-on in the country and what they felt was an unfair representation of the college going youth at the time. This can be seen in today's youth as well feeling misunderstood and fighting to make things right.

I would give this book a 4 star rating. The book is well written and it has great character development. I like that the author made the reader care about Steve's character. Readers get to 'grow up' with him as the story progresses. The only thing I disliked was how his relationship with Roxy turned out.

The author made the book unique. Combined a whole lot of themes together. A war book with a touch of romance is an intriguing one.

“Wild world” is a book that talks about what happened during the Vietnam war. I like how the author connects characters to make the book interesting. The cover of this book is also amazing. People who love to read stories about terrorism, war, and history would find it interesting.
