If you have ever played Starcraft and played as a terran, you can basically relate this book to the game. The differences are that one is a book and the other is a game, also, the other difference is that the book retells the battles through the eyes of a witness who experiences all of this in his own opinions. Aside from that, this is a recommended book for those who have never played the game and wish to read the experiences instead. If you have played the game, you might be a little disappointed.
