Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take

The Ninja Mindset

44/100

Randell Stroud has real investigative credentials and the book is refreshingly concise, but self-publishing through Lulu with no editorial oversight and no critical reviews is a significant credibility gap in a crowded self-help genre. The serial killer case studies feel tonally out of place in a personal resilience book, and 80 pages simply cannot do justice to mental resilience, physical training, and threat awareness simultaneously. A niche pick for a very specific audience.
