 Fascinating October 4, 2008
The best non-fiction modern 'war' book I've read in years. Took it on holiday & read it in 3 days. Unputdownable. Knocks spots off Bravo Two Zero (& that was bl@@dy good)
No brainer...buy it now. October 4, 2008
OMG! I cant believe this is only 3.99!!!! I spotted it in the airport on my way out on hols - but paid 3 times as much. Having read it though, I would pay that again! Much to my wifes disgust, I missed much of my holiday as I couldnt get my head out of it. A real eye opener that is fantastically written - gritty, shocking, informative, humorous, ( I couldnt stop laughing on the plane when he describes the over excited dog jumping in the pool!) and certainly makes you proud of 'our lads'.
Great read October 3, 2008
One of those books you enjoy reading. Bought this to read on my 11 hour flight to Thailand and i was 3/4 through it by the time we landed in Bangkok. The skill and courage of these soldiers is amazing.
sniper one September 29, 2008
I'm not great at describing things and i am sure as hell no jouralist. However, i'd recommend this book to anyone who wants to know what the realities of what our boys face out there on the front line really are. This book is fast paced from the start and if you are like me, you will have read the book from cover to cover in two days! One of the best books i have read in a long time.
 21st Century Rorke's Drift September 20, 2008
If you thought that Britain's involvement in Iraq was all 'hearts and minds' and smiles for the camera (as politicians may have you believe) while the Americans got stuck in, then this book will put you right. A stunning account of how the Prince of Wales Royal Regiment pulled off a modern day Rorke's Drift style operation in defence of Al-Amarah (the backdrop to Pte. Johnson Beharry's VC award). The book starts with a bang and continues from there, even when you think things have quietened down it all kicks off again. A brilliant roller-coaster account of what life must be like as a modern British soldier fighting a vicious war that few people understand or know about.
