"Read for work. Good book for top primary and lower secondary. A modern take on Enid Blyton's Famous Five that's very believable. Great survival tips care of ex-SAS soldier now author Chris Ryan. Some of the description of prisoners and other sticky situations felt very credible..."

    " The one that got away is a must book for war lovers it is about an sas sqaud who infiltrate an iraqi desert trying to blow up missile launchers the intel they have been given about the mission is very scarce and wrong "

    " I gotta say, I love survival stories. I'm such a guy that way. This is about a British elite soldier that becomes trapped in Iraq during the first Gulf War. Most of the guys he is with don't make it. He walks all the way to Syria. It's amazing. "

    " a little more egocentric than Mcnabb's book. The mission was over even before it had begun. Thats the bottom line "
