About this listen

The most explosive true war story of the 21st Century.

It is the winter of 2001. A terror ship is bound for Britain carrying a horrifying weapon. The British military sends a crack unit of SAS and SBS to assault the vessel before she reaches London.

So begins a true story of explosive action as this band of elite warriors pursues the merchants of death from the high seas to the harsh wildlands of Afghanistan. The hunt culminates in the single greatest battle of the Afghan war, the brutal and bloody siege of an ancient mud-walled fortress crammed full of hundreds of Al-Qaeda and Taliban.

Fighting against impossible odds and bitter betrayal, our handful of crack fighters battle to rescue their fellow soldiers trapped by a murderous, fanatical enemy.

Bloody annoying.

I'm sorry, but the voicing and use of accents in the narration of this story is just plain annoying....please stop!

very disjointed

ok.. the actual event was brutal but the story telling and compilation was crap. There was little after the initial contact in the fort at the end and then suddenly the book ended. just shit and disjointed writing.
bizarre how the writer added in all the supposed conversations.
just crap.
Also, the SBS boys pretending to be the all amazing land combat group well above and beyond the SAS. fckn bizarre. That was weird.
Pity the detail and story wasn't covered properly as this battle and the whole thing was epic.

you missed a real opportunity here... who ever write this... 2/10
