For the most part, The Generals - Brotherhood of War is written in a clear manner that results in quick and easy reading. The book is about the military so there are military terms, jargon and abbreviations throughout the book. These terms are all defined for the reader, either through the dialogue of the characters or in footnotes at the bottom of the page. Griffin does a very good job with the definitions and does not leave the reader hanging as to the meaning of these terms. The use of these terms add realism to the story, even though the reader must keep track of the terms.
