It took a couple of chapters to get really into, but a nice drive to keep going by like page 50. The different perspectives seems authentic and real. It’s interesting and thought provoking to read detailed descriptions about a war you didn’t even know happened. 

Read while listening to “Strømmer» by Hvalfugl.
