Is that the new thing? Because, I'm starting to feel like that's the new thing.

No link necessary, everyone knows exactly what you're thinking about.

I thought this was a GD post, did not see it was in Books forum. So I was kinda being an ignorant douche. I listened to an episode or 2 of SOFREP Brandon Webb's podcast which had Nick Irving on. Nothing memorable. The book is probably interesting, but I'm wondering if somebody has set up a consulting/publishing gig and is pushing guys to churn out books. The co-author of this book also co-authored some books by Mike Ritland, another SOFREP guy. I don't have time to read all this stuff, so if it sells good on them I guess. |

I do the same in GD. Yeah, I figured as such. I've just never heard of the guy before. I might get around to reading it once the price drops or can find a used one. I can't justify $25-$35 on a book that i'll never read again |

One of my buddies said it was really good. I'll eventually pick it up in the future after I read my backlog of books (around 10 titles).

I bought it. I'm sure it is a lot of the same. I've heard him talk on podcasts and he's got some great stories. I hope he talks about the one where he hallucinates George Foreman during ranger school.
I have nearly all the books I can possibly have regarding special ops since 9/11. It's my favorite genre. |

I haven't read his newest version, but the one that came out a few years ago is the one I've read. It was rife with all sorts of errors, but it was a really enjoyable book. I felt more like I was sitting down having a beer with him hearing his stories, than I did reading a book.

Just finished it. I enjoyed it. Despite the dramatic proclamations on the cover, it wasn't trying to turn him into a larger than life character. Was just an interesting story.

i thought the book was good, a little vague at times. but i cant really be disappointed in a book that describes ventilating terrorists in a good amount of detail.
