Le Prix de la victoire

Understanding the historical and personal factors behind this setting adds layers to the story. I wonder how much research went into portraying the era authentically.

The characters’ choices felt incredibly real and complex, making me question what I would do in similar situations. Would love to hear others' reactions.

The slow build contrasted with moments of sudden violence, which really heightened the tension. I’m curious if Marlantes aimed for this rhythm to mirror war’s unpredictability.
