ralphswater's review against another edition
2.0
If allowed, this would be a 2.5 star rating. Once the story of Luttrell's survival gets going, it's a very compelling one. However, prior to that, you must get through his rants about "the liberal media" and "liberal politicians" who he pretty much scapegoats for the disaster that befell his team.
Though not a well written book, the story of survival is enough of a hook to make the experience worth finishing.

This was one of the best books I’ve read in awhile. I would suggest listening to the audiobook!

This story is absolutely incredible. It is a true story that takes you from the beginning of Navy SEAL training to the dangerous, life-altering mission in the Middle East that leaves Marcus as the lone survivor.

I absolutely loved this book. One of the best, for sure!
But I have to say, the last review or any reviews with two or less stars are bull. I'm sorry. But this is Marcus Luttrell's story. He wrote HIS book for his fallen friends so people would know the true story. He wrote 100 pages about his training to give insight on every single Navy SEAL battle to even become what they are. They have every reason to be confident and carry his head high. EVERY reason.
My respect for every SEAL is through the roof and I owe this book for the knowledge I wouldn't have known otherwise.
PLEASE read this book. Respect Marcus and all he has been through which is a hell of a lot more than 99% of most North Americans can say they've gone through.
Prayers. :)
