## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Gripping and authentic
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2017*

There is no substitute for boots on the ground. Venter has put decades of his life into this subject and it shows. He has met some of the most dashing, venerable, legendary and even nefarious mercenary warriors on the planet, and chewed the same dirt as them. His knowledge of African politics and cold-war era military hardware is unparalleled; his storytelling is first rate and often told from the point of a view of a reporter who could only have been there in person. Where he couldn't, his sources speak eloquently and authentically for themselves. The copy needs a little polish and that's only thing keeping this from five stars. A tour de force for anyone who wants to know how modern wars are fought in the dark corners of the world. Buy it. You deserve it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Well-written guide to the private paramilitary world
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2019*

Long a fan of Al Venters work, both in books and SOF magazine, this book tells you all you need to know on the subject of private forces in use in far away places.  Full of the big picture as well as small details filling in the blanks.  A very good, attention grasping book worth your time to enjoy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Superb, AL J Venter at his best
  

*by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2015*

Another thoroughly researched and well written book by Al J Venter on one of his favourite subjects; wars and the men who fight them. Being South African the book held me captivated from beginning to end.If your purpose is to learn about PMC's or to hear what happened to long lost officers from your conscript days the SA Army, this is the book for you. If you just like Al J Venter's books, grab it, it won't disappoint, his research and insights are second to none and the facts are presented in an easily digested manner.The book leans heavily on the South African PMC's, though Venter does add some perspective with older and newer stories including US and Brit PMC's.
