A fantastic read, though I didn’t find the end quite as satisfying as Red Team Blues. That’ll be a hard one to top.

All around decent
4 stars
It’s a good way to introduce business and DevOps concepts to folks new to them from either direction. My biggest complaint is that in service of that mission, the storytelling plays out somewhere between a bad case of “plot armor” and “wish fulfillment”.

Now I’ve got the “book finished blues”
5 stars
Absolutely phenomenal. Could not put it down, devoured in a whirlwind, and entirely-too-impatient for the rest of the series. Compelling storytelling, memorable characters, and a gripping plot.
If you only read one book this year and it isn’t Red Team Blues, you should really make it two.

Loved the book. I am gonna get a little nit-picky about the continuity errors, some successfully retconned by the switch of protagonist, others were just ignored entirely and stood out that much worse for it. Being honest though, if I hadn’t read all three books more or less back-to-back, I doubt any would have stuck out to me.
