Just finished reading this (it is a quick and entertaining read). Not as gripping as "Lone Survivor", but it definately makes a long flight go by quickly.
That being said, I cannot understand what all the hoopla/controversy was about. Most of what he describes is/was common knowledge, but with the added perspective of being a first-hand account. The only thing really at odds with the Obama administration (to which he admits he has no love for) is how the killing of Bin-Laden occurred. I believe his criticism of Obama is what got the press and Leon Pannetta in such a frenzy.
If you are looking for the revelation of state secrets, this isn't it--try Wikileaks instead.
I give it a 7/10.
