I like Steve’s unwavering determination, it was really easy to feel sorry for him but also captivating to see how he continued through all the challenges. The only thing which was too much was the profanity. But that put aside, the author's story and writing style is gorgeous. This book’s greatest lesson is; never give up doing good no matter how others respond. This book deserves a 4/4 stars rating.

The author's writing is distinctive. This book sounds interesting, and I think I'll enjoy reading it. Steve faces a challenging future, and I adore the way this book's characters are portrayed. It's helpful to learn the author's perspective on the Vietnam War because it had a significant impact.

This book is a good one, and I love Steve's personality. It is educative and entertaining, and I was able to flow seamlessly with the author's perspective. The title is an exact description for the big things that happened in the book. I'd definitely recommend this book to other people because I rate it 4 out of 4 stars.

I really enjoyed the plot, and how many different controversial topics were discussed in this book. The point of view is amazing in my opinion, and I don't think the book would've been the same if the main character, Steve, didn't make the same life choices.

I think author did an excellent job of providing us the various perspectives of war. Vietnam war or any other war is always more than the just fighting in the battle. It involves every citizen between those countries. I recently read an autobiography, and the author is a refugee of Vietnam only.

Although this book has many wonderful qualities, simply the sight of the cover makes me want to read it or set it as my phone's background. The book's cover is descriptive and conveys the main idea of the text. In this situation, I suggest judging a book by its cover.

I like the content of this book. The plot and storyline is unique, and I love Steve's personality. The title is a two-word description for everything that happened in this book, and I'd readily recommend it to every lover of historical fiction.

This book was great. About the Vietnam War, I've heard a lot. I was eager to start reading this book when I first saw it and after reading the review. The cover conveys the intended meaning accurately. However, I believe the book makes use of quite strong language. Right from the start, you can sense the rage and other strong emotions.

I'll give this book a 4 out of 4 stars any day, any time. I enjoyed this book so much, I loved the central theme of love, loyalty, and sacrifice. It was really intriguing for me.

A deftly crafted and inherently engaging read from cover to cover, Wild World is an extraordinary and impressively entertaining read from beginning to end ..." --Midwest Book Review

"(Wild World) is so very pertinent to our time that reading it brings into sharp focus those flaws in our present political condition: change is not only possible, but inevitable." --San Francisco Review of Books

"Wild World is a crime novel, a love story and a mystery all rolled into one... well written and keeps your attention." --Peace Corps Journal

"An intricate and captivating read throughout.... with the kind of narrative twists that prove wholly addictive...Wild World proves an extraordinarily powerful debut from Peter Rush." --Book Viral

Peter S. Rush brings the '70s to vivid life in his stunning and timely debut novel .

Set against the backdrop of the protest era of the early 1970s, Wild World is a gripping novel about one tenacious young man whose fervor for social justice holds unexpected consequences for his own life.

In the spring of 1970, Steve Logan, like thousands of other college students across America, takes to the streets to protest authority and the Vietnam War. Fueled by a strong sense of moral justice, he wants to make the world better--a belief his girlfriend Roxy, a medical student, passionately shares. Weeks before his graduation, Steve's life is upended when National Guard troops kill four students at Kent State University. Then, he meets a reform-minded cop who convinces Steve that to change the system, he has to get involved.

Eager to make a difference, Steve decides to give up law school and join the city's police department. While the rookie cop with an Ivy League degree knows that change is difficult, the reality of fighting the establishment soon overwhelms him. His education makes him an outsider, and his honesty makes him a threat to the corrupt cops who use the power of their badge to inflict brutality and extort. His college friends think he's a traitor to the cause and even Roxy, the woman he loves, has begun to pull away.

I really enjoyed the boom overall. It was nice to read avout someone who wants to make a change in the world and it's not scared of the consequences of his actions.
Four out of four stars

The author's writing style was unique and the story was interesting. One of the flaws that I found in the book is how it contains a lot of sexual scenes that make the book a little bit more annoying. The book cover marches exactly with the book. I will rate this book 3 out of 4 stars. I would recommend this book to people who love to read books related to police and also love books with themes of romance.

I rated Wild World 4 out of 4, it was a great book. It was well-written and made you think about doing the right thing and also about how far corruption would go before it would end.

This book a centred around the Vietnam War. It can pass for a thriller. I enjoyed the author's style of writing, he was quite descriptive. The book is quite informative and deserves a 5 out of 5 rating.
