A review by ronanbossard
The Accidental War by Walter Jon Williams
4.0
The covers lies, this is not mil-SF. Some economics, short enough for those who don't like it, long enough for the others (and the parallels with the real worlds are unsettling). Interesting secondary characters. Subtext about how normalising and incentivizing war crimes done on others might end up with war crimes done to yourself.
The Sula character would have been too much of an hypercompetent author's pet if her hypercompetence did not screw everything up. But it did, so that's Ok I guess?
I might add a fifth star if the sequel is good too.
