Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 11
Thirty years after its great triumph in Vietnam, the US has again become mired in an endless foreign war overseas. Stories of super soldiers known as the Volunteers tuck in little American boys and girls every night. Yet domestic politics are aflame. Violent protests erupt throughout the nation; an ex-military watchdog group clashes with police while radical terrorists threaten to expose government experiments within the veteran rehabilitation colonies. Halfway between war and peace, the Volunteers find themselves waiting for orders in the vast American city-state, Empire City.

Another Winner by Gallagher
Revisado: 05-13-20
I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. Mr. Gallagher’s alternative reality is both fun fascinating and possible. He takes us on a journey in an alternative reality that feels both real and distant at the same time. His characters are interesting and relatable. His story telling never slows. A+.

The US military is preparing to withdraw from Iraq, and newly minted lieutenant Jack Porter struggles to accept how it's happening - through alliances with warlords who have Arab and American blood on their hands. Day after day Jack tries to assert his leadership in the sweltering, dreary atmosphere of Ashuriyah. But his world is disrupted by the arrival of veteran sergeant Daniel Chambers, whose aggressive style threatens to undermine the fragile peace that the troops have worked hard to establish.

Great book about an unclear war
Revisado: 03-16-16
Matt Gallagher does an amazing of taking the listener to a war that few people understood and few people wanted to support. Gallagher does a fantastic job as a true story teller to show both what life was like for soldiers while adding enough fiction to capture the listener's imagination. Kirby Heyborne does a great job as the reader as well. Would recommend this to most everyone, whether they have been in the military or not.
