Summary : The book opens up with our hero Dookie ( yes , he legally changed his name to Dookie ) graduating from boot camp and heading out on his first mission . The enemy the were sent to destroy turned out not to be the threat that Dookie’s squad was led to believe so they decided to stop fighting and talk . Their enemy is dealing with a foe named the GreenBacks that Dookie’s squad had been told was not a real group . Dookie feels lied to, so he teams up with the people he was sent to kill in order to destroy the GreenBacks . As Dookie does this , him and his squad are disavowed by the Corp . Eventually, Dookie is forced back home to Dragon Valley and he takes up a security job with Hellmart . Turns out ( insert dramatic music ) it’s run by demons ! Who would’ve guessed ? Guess Dookie has a new war to fight .

Review : I’ll be upfront , the author sent me a copy of the book themselves , I didn’t take money to do this review but the book could be considered a gift so we will straight up about it . That being said even if it hadn’t been gifted to me I would still dig this book . You essentially got a Marine fighting literal corporate demons . How could I not like it ? If you want a well written satire with action and oddities abound then pick it up where you can !
