America has established Project: Battle, a military program to train promising children the art of battle from a very young age. They are sent to Battle School, where they are taught strategy, tactics, logistics, and more. But Battle School has a dark side as well… Cathan Yuo is the best student to ever enter Battle School. But nobody, not even him, has any idea how much he would change it. Cathan is very intelligent. Too intelligent.

Once it appeared with me, I realized that I had not read books in a very long time (3 months), and it was often difficult for me to put this down. I have not read Ender’s Game, but friends who read over shoulders say that this book is too much like Ender’s Game to be called original content. However, I disagree, as many of the colliding plots in the story tend to mirror something within the reader and author and build the connection that the author had desired, rather than copy a work of fiction with its lovely copyrights and leave nothing for the reader to grasp other than “Am I reading the same thing twice?”.In terms of grammar quirks, this book infuriated me on many levels. In a very intense scene, I was very wrapped up in the story line, when, suddenly, out of nowhere;. Yes, a semicolon. It set me off quite a good deal that I started ranting about it right on the spot. The author has informed me that many other errors had been resolved from the version that I had read, but seriously, a semicolon?!?! It completely set off the mood of that entire page. There were other select grammar errors, but none of them set me off as much as that semicolon.At the memory of that interrupted scene, I recall a particular error with how the author used foreshadowing and imagery. As I read through scenes, things often happen the same way through romance sections. A girl and guy meet up. They say hi. They do the exact same thing. It was okay the first time I read it, but seriously, the same scene just got repeated three times in a row with different characters. I mean, I understand if that was the technique that the author meant to communicate, but in terms of writing style and repetitiveness, this irked me quite a lot. In terms of repeating things.I feel that this book was supposed to be very science fiction centered, but it ended up being couples romance in the setting of a science fiction novel. I mean, I wouldn’t have it any other way, but the romance often takes away from the more realistic or sciencey side of the novel.Many scenes appear to be rushed throughout this book, or unnecessarily dragged out. Especially during the exposition, initiation games could have been elaborated on more than they were. Plot was very rushed by the letters, which were a vital part of Ender’s Game I have heard, but they weren’t needed, and often I as a reader was confused as to where the heck the characters were or who someone was without following up with names quickly enough to move things along at a normal speed. The tempo of the novel is inconsistent with the progressiveness of love scenes as well. I mean, I know when you’re in love, time stops, but the reader can’t be kept on edge for maybe 2 and half pages. The insert story is an exception, as it was genuinely touching to read, but most other love scenes do not evoke the right emotion.Deaths were very...how to put it. Shallow, at times. [redacted]’s especially. Her death could have been elaborated on more. I feel if Project:Battle were an anime this would have been cleaner, or more fluid.So as to support the high rating that I gave this book, I will now proceed to mercilessly compliment it for app. 2 paragraphs. The ideas and plot development rose smoothly, it contained a clear exposition and setup of setting with minor flaws. Rising action as detailed through the dual letter format often complemented the storyline in a way that a free flowing story could not have accomplished on its own. The staggering of climaxes was effective in creating the feeling of being engrossed in the novel. Falling action was brief, but well placed and effective in leaving the reader wanting more, but satisfied.This book evoked many feels. Good feels, and bad feels. But all feels are appreciated. I can empathize with many characters, and in a sense, the author has projected himself into the sentences that weave this novel together. It takes an original turn with stories about the hero Cathan that often the reader can sympathize with. I especially admire how the author brought out the flaws of the main character, rather than making him the perfect savior. Developed characters serve as role models to young people.This book had a positive impact on me.

Interesting, but falls short of a young adult read By Elor Tang First off, I would like to recognize that this book is meant to be young adult fiction, and the main characters in the books are of an indeterminate teens age. There is an abundance of romance in this book, and if you're looking for a classic science fiction which does not deal with emotions as much as the defeat of a dystopian society, this book is not for you. I recommend Ender's Game instead, which inspired this book and an influence which is especially prevalent towards the beginning of the book. The synopsis, which was not posted until after I had read this book, would likely have deterred me from reading it due to the cliche YA-eque feel, but after reading both, I do not feel the synopsis reflects the book.For a science fiction book, technology does not seem to play as much of a role as the system of Battle School and the Humanity War. The majority of the technology elaborated upon in this book is more or less current, except for the gear of one team which is made of a fictional material. However, this works in this case, as it makes the story with its casual dialogue more realistic, helping to pull the reader into the fight scenes, in which, for the most part, characters are also injured fairly reasonably.The romance is also well balanced. While in few cases the development of romance seems poorly explained, it is made up for with mostly genuine descriptions of dreams and thoughts. It is possible that the author takes inspiration from his own life. The choice to kill one of the competitors in a love triangle, however, seems poor; leading up to this event, the competitor was in a steady relationship with the girl, who seemed to be happy but later enters a relationship with the other character. The girl had previously rejected the other character's romantic emotions, and if a reason was given for her change of heart, it did not resonate with me as a reader.One especially interesting feature of this book is the insert stories which contain mini-plots. While I won't give anything away, they take place in a different setting and add a new dimension to the main story. Despite the simple developments which took place, these were probably one of the main highlights of the Project: Battle for me.Most of the writing is not particularly extraordinary; the book opens with an email exchange between officers at Project: Battle, which feels vaguely copied from Ender's Game. However, it quickly transitions to a descriptive scene between two characters from a third person perspective of Evie. While at first this blatant hinting of a later pairing might seem overused, it ends refreshingly with Cathan's thought, an example of the smooth transitions evident throughout Project: Battle which redeem some of the scenes, especially at the beginning, that seem just a little too familiar. In my personal opinion, the insert stories are better written than most of the other scenes.Another aspect that I would like to point out is that while the main characters are not perfect, they don't seem to have many faults and their losses can be blamed more on the power of the winners or the stupidity of others on their team. While this is fine for many other books, the overall glossiness of the characters combined with the very personal romantic conflicts is slightly alienating. The agreement at the end is also slightly too optimistic (spoiler: world peace and a total weapons ban, however impractical, are implemented), though it's not out of place in the book.Overall, the plot was very interesting and well constructed, but the writing failed to bring out the mood of some scenes that I felt like should have been very dramatic, relying more on the imagination to construct heart-racing or a sense of anxiety. There is much less excitement that I've come to expect from young adult fiction, despite the complex romantic situation. I would recommend Project: Battle more as a middle-grade read, as there is only general depiction of violence and no inappropriate content, just a plot that will keep an avid reader going.
