If you like Herzog’s narrative style in movies you’ll enjoy the book. It’s a very quick read, maybe 3 hours. In some bits I could practically hear him in my head, like this:

“The night is long. The crickets, not caring about war or peace, or who gets to name wars and for what reason, intensify their monotonous screaming, this is their war, perhaps also their peace negotiations, equally unbeknownst to us.”
