I genuinely like the writing style. Writing int as a story is definitely infinitely better than any other "recipe" book.

That being said, as of 2024 this book reads full of cliches; and the MC being the macho American ex navy just destroys a bunch of different great points

Has interesting points but not mind blowing (obviously this is 11 years after initial writing)
