Special Forces - Soldiers by Aleksandr Voinov, Vashtan, Marquesate
5.0
I have absolutely no words to describe how I feel about this book, I know I wont do it justice. I guess I'll start out easy I love the cover for this book, it reminds me so much of how Dan, Scottish SAS soldier, talked about the mountains in the book. This book, the way the mountains are described makes me want to go there and never leave, to be free and one with the mountains and all of its emotions even when describing the bitter cold winters, it makes me long for freedom when I didn't even know I felt trapped.
In this book you two enemies SAS soldier Dan, and Vadim Soviet spetsnaz soldier, brought together in the line of duty. Behind the lines respect, and love are finally nurtured. It's a tale of two men brought together though a set of harrowing circumstances. It's Violent and bitter, it's about two men, enemies, surviving.
And though I did have to slow down at times, part of what took me so long so long to finish, I had to actually proses these thing that happened. To me this wasn't just reading I felt ever emotion in this book at times I hated right along with Dan, at other times I felt along with Vadim. I cried, I laughed, I was appalled, I felt the tension as if I was standing between them, observing their lives. I felt for these two characters how I haven't felt for people I know.
And how it ended, this wasn't no "happily ever after", no this was real life with the harsh demands at the extreme, and it will be something I will never forget.
