" Dust jacket protected in a mylar book cover.

"It's an amazing inside look at the US Special Forces work with the Northern Alliance in their attempt to destroy the Taliban and Al Qaida. The personal stories of the soldiers are very relatable, and seeing how the soldiers had to work in one of the harshest environments in the world spurred by their patriotism and duty to mission is inspiring."
"Decent writing. Interesting perspective. Eye Opening facts. But, really, how long can a normal guy like me read about people who are passionate about killing?
I'm not pro war. I'm not anti-war (when waged properly)...but I'm not someone who takes pleasure in war, as the author and the people in this book obviously do. This book did a few things for me: Helped clarify that war is dirty business, Made me realize that every country needs people who have the attitudes and passions that are shown in this writing, and opened my eyes to how special the folks in the Special Forces really are.
I quit this book about half way just because I couldn't read any more about the glorification of violence. However, it doesn't mean I respect the folks in this book any less....if anything, I have a greater respect for the way God uses them in this thing called society."
"Tremendous book, great insight and information. Well written, very clear and easy to understand on many levels. Sensational account of the abilities of our special forces in combat."
