Mezrich says in the afterward that this was the best book he's written. I can't say that I agree. You root for the main character to succeed, but the guy he's fighting on the board of the merc is not a very intriguing villain (unlike the Japanese mafia in 'Ugly Americans'), and the 'plot' (remember, this is non-fiction) is just not that interesting compared to his other works. A bit disappointing.
