  1. Mubashra Tahreem Parvez

    The author clearly did a ton of research. However, it felt more like a textbook than a gripping story. Good, but dry.

  2. Adithyan S

    While informative, I found it difficult to connect with the characters. It reads very academically.

  3. Akanksh Anand

    The book provides a fresh perspective. It is sometimes repetitive. Good for academic purposes.

    A detailed look at a complex time. The book can be a bit dense, but worth it for those interested in Cold War history.
