review 1: I read through this book in two days. An action-packed adventure about a group of special forces guys (and gals) who enter a valley in Afghanistan to take on what was once a group of humans. Zombie-like, I enjoyed how the author went away from the zombie mold and created something different. The characters were likeable, and the action intense. My only complaint is it took some time to get to the actual fight, but the pace of the novel kept me turning the pages. I'm curious as to whether the author served in special forces as he seems to know his material well. I'd suggest this to any casual reader who likes war/military books. review 2: Having served as an Operator in the Army, and having served two tours in Afghanistan, this book was quite welcoming. I've hea... morerd the rumors, and the author seals that deal in my opinion. Something strange happened in Khost. Regarless, this book is fiction, and the author does a good job setting up a great adventure. Long book, yet I flew through the pages. I'll read more of his work. less
