Company of Violent Men is an interesting book, but it can be improved. The author writing style can be improved

While informative, the book felt somewhat disjointed. Jumping between conflicts made it hard to fully immerse myself in any one story.

A raw and unsettling look at conflict zones. Roy’s writing is powerful, but I found some sections a bit too dense. Overall, a worthwhile read.
