The Cypher Brief has a first person account of the war in Ukraine as currently experienced by a US citizen - a former special ops warrior in our services - who now volunteers boots on the ground in Ukraine. This isn’t your dad’s war in Iraq, it’s not even your older brother’s war in "the Sandbox."
It is a whole new game, or more accurately, a new way of playing the brutal old game. I fear darn few at the decision-making levels in our military have any concept of what is entailed. Do yourself a favor and read it.
The Skynet reference in the title alludes to the AI cybermind villain of the Terminator films.
