Black Ops Heroes of Afghanistan Kindle Edition

4.1 out of 5 stars 1,404 ratings

Life is short and justice a rare commodity in the harsh wastelands of Afghanistan. Navy SEAL Lieutenant Rafe Stoner is about to encounter this cruel truth the hard way. An operation goes tragically wrong, and a Taliban sniper team ambushes a UNHCR ambulance. One of the dead is the woman with whom he intended to start a new life. Stoner turns his back on civilization, and begins a new career as a gun for hire in the bitter land ruled by the bomb and the bullet.

With a growing reputation as a man who gets results, the former SEAL agrees to locate the murderer of a young boy's father. This time he is up against overwhelming odds, so he recruits a former friend, Greg Blum, as an extra gun. Blum is a talented shooter, the son of a Russian who fought in Afghanistan during the Russian invasion. He is also the man Stoner once threatened to kill.

The operation becomes a desperate fight for survival. Battling drug-traffickers, murderers and warlords, Stoner has to employ all of his SEAL skills just to stay alive. The two men fight their way through ambush and the bitter snows of winter to reach their target. Standing in their way is a vicious warlord, Massoud, who counts among his ranks a psychopathic American sniper. The battle becomes a bloody and ferocious duel to the death.

This is a spectacular story of a fight for justice in a ruined and war-torn land. Black-Ops: Heroes of Afghanistan is by the bestselling author of many Spec Ops war stories. These include the popular SEAL Team Bravo titles, the Raider series, as well as the Echo Six, Raider and Devil's Guard series.

    The author does a good job of mixing men, women, children and a loyal dog into an adventure story where the harsh Afghan Winter is as much of an obstacle as the realities of urban warfare. Tightly written with good pace on every page and most enjoyable.

    Another good book,one you can not put down . In the dog house with my wife ( can you please put that book DOWN) no hope sleeping in the kennel tonight.!!!!
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 May 2015
    It's a bit far fetched and very corny but if you like this sort of thing it's ok. Getting rescued on more than one occasion by a 13 year old with an ancient tractor and a dog makes you wonder how he has managed to survive until now.

    More twists and turns than a moto gp. When you upset good people they change and do things they would not normally do. Put this together with a man who knows how to be vengeful and you get a great book.

    Reviewed in the United States on 2 May 2018
    This book was very entertaining and exciting. I did not like any of the bad guys. And I really enjoyed the story line . When all of the bad characters got what they deserved, I cheered. I was very happy when all of the great characters were still standing in the end.

    I found this a great read, in that it kept me wondering how all the interwoven parts joined up together. In the end it all became apparent and added to my enjoyment. This is my first book by this Author and I'm off to go and read some more of his books. I recommend you read this book yourself and then you too might find that you enjoy some more from this Author.
