    Looking for some novels about characters who join the army eventually become generals and stuff. I would like that to be the general plot of the story and not some arc like in PMG. Preferably not a modern or future type setting with mechs. I don't like those types of novels in general.

    Thanks-

    The Amber Sword gets really weird after a bit. It goes in a completely different direction than I would have ever expected. It's nothing bad, but I guess I would have to say it becomes less of it's own novel. It starts relying on another universe's rules. I don't wanna spoil it, but I could definitely see people not liking it because of that.

    Record of The Human Emperor. Well he’s in the army for half the novel before it gets political for the other half and then goes back to the army for the final boss showdown
