It was very to the point. Quick style, only interesting for a non-professional read. Sun Tsu's word play and description pan out the reading and you're done. 😅

Please, can you update the cover? Also, make a better reading format (it's a little bit too small on my phone, and I don't want to zoom in every time)

A good read with good insight into engaging in warfare. This book contains some irritating grammar issues though if you can look over them this book still gets the point across.
