AburridoIf you want propaganda, this is your book. Left = good, right = bad.Characters are black or white. If they are socialists then they are angels that speak from the highest moral ground, unlike right leaning characters that are cartoonishly evil and basically good for nothing.MCs are conveniently in every single major event of WW2, influencing leaders like Stalin or Roosvelt with their always brilliant input.Sex scenes everywhere, most of the time for no reason and written in such a way that makes you cringe.At least, it's easy to read and follow despite so many characters, though the author puts his politic beliefs blindly and can see no wrong in anything to the left.
