"A fictional account of the U.S. Special Forces successful interdiction of Che Guevera's efforts to spark rebellion in the Congo and thus bring Communism to Africa."
"I found this book in a bathroom basket of "our" summertime condo at Navarre Beach. The title caught my eye just as the Navy helicopters do by chopping away at balcony level. Special Ops is the final book in WEB Griffin's Brotherhood of War series. Published in 2001, but set in the '60's, the novel is filled with military drama, and of course that cocktail party culture I find so fascinating. Author William Edmond Butterworth lll is an interesting character in his own right having maintained a varied and colorful military career before becoming a prolific writer of military and detective fiction. Special Ops drags out to its final destination not entirely successful in holding my interest despite plenty of recon air support, with special forces on the ground in Africa. Yet I'm glad to have finished it realizing that perhaps some of its lack of success was due to my own deficit of focus, my attention diverted by ever more fantastic literature.....as fast as life."
