Summary
Unfairly convicted of helping a killer in a drug-related hit, Jack Grant faces five long years in the pen. Except the judge offers him an alternative, a chance to make a difference. Grant joins the infantry, and on the 11th of September 2001, the planes hit the World Trade Center. Soon after, they ship out for Afghanistan.
Grant’s unit is tasked with guarding Bagram Airbase. A safe assignment, where his worst enemy is a vindictive platoon lieutenant. That’s until the Taliban mounts a massive attack on the airbase. Grant fights back like a demon and discovers a natural affinity for the heat of battle. Impressed by his ferocity, an Army Rangers captain seconds him to assist with a special mission. It is the start of a long, hard battle for survival and to defeat many powerful and cunning enemies. Some are robed and bearded and carry AK-47s. Others wear the uniform of the US military. At stake is his freedom, his life, and the life of those around him.
Special Operations: Grant’s War is an incredible story of a tough, violent man in a tough, violent land.

Grant
I enjoyed listening toHenry Marshall. love his narration.
I saw the reviews for this book, and took a chance and I am glad I did.
A man with strength and honour, finds himself been forced to join the arm, after helping a friend.
It is set just set after 9/11 in Afghanistan. There is action , heroes and those only out for themselves.
Violence, and strength of characters.
I enjoyed the twists and turns.
Glad I got this book

Grants War.
Jack Grant works in a local gunshot and enjoys his life. After helping a crooked friend he ends up involved in a court case and the judge offers him 5 years in jail or the chance to fight for his country. He ends up in Afghanistan and after an FBI Agent is kidnapped by the Taliban he ends up in enemy territory trying to save him. How any man can take the punishment that Jack does and survives is beyond me but it all makes good listening! LOL! Henry Marshalls narration is excellent and brings all the characters to life. Highly recommended.
I was kindly given a copy of the book by the narrator and leave this honest review.
