Story4.5 out of 5 stars 44,094
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true. At last, Tina Fey's story can be told. From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live. Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we've always suspected: You're no one until someone calls you bossy.

Sadie Hutchins loves her job at the Kentucky Tourism Commission. Not only could her co-workers double as the cast of Parks and Recreation, but she loves finding the unusual sites, hidden gems, and just-plain-odd tourist attractions of her home state. She’s a shoo-in for the director’s job when her boss retires at the end of the year…until hotshot Josh Vaughn shows up to challenge her for the position. Josh is all sophisticated polish while Sadie’s country comfort, and the two have very different ideas of what makes a good campaign.

Hank is a thug. He knows he's a thug. He has no problem with that realization. In his view the galaxy has given him a gift: a mutation that allows him to withstand great deals of physical trauma. He puts his abilities to the best use possible and that isn't by being a scientist. Besides, the space station Belvaille doesn't need scientists. It is not, generally, a thinking person's locale. It is the remotest habitation in the entire Colmarian Confederation. There is literally no reason to be there.

Publisher's summary
This is not the story of a hero. So begins the story of one of the most distinctive heroes you'll ever meet. Drafted into a war he barely comprehends with no taste for combat, Pup will find himself thrust into the very center of the conflict. How he affects that conflict, and how this changes him and everyone around him, is the soul of this utterly unique war story.

He raised an army against those who took everything from him. They should have picked their enemies more carefully. Five centuries from now, on a remarkably Earthlike planet that is mankind's sole colony in space, religious fanatics called the "Salafi Ikhwan" have murdered the uncle of former colonel Patrick Hennessey. That was their first mistake, because uncle was rich and Hennessey was rather a good colonel. But they also murdered Hennessey's wife, Linda, and their three small children, and that was their worst mistake for she was the only restraint Hennessey had ever accepted.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 224
He raised an army against those who took everything from him. They should have picked their enemies more carefully. Five centuries from now, on a remarkably Earthlike planet that is mankind's sole colony in space, religious fanatics called the "Salafi Ikhwan" have murdered the uncle of former colonel Patrick Hennessey. That was their first mistake, because uncle was rich and Hennessey was rather a good colonel. But they also murdered Hennessey's wife, Linda, and their three small children, and that was their worst mistake for she was the only restraint Hennessey had ever accepted.

Que Son Valley is actually a large area of hills and valleys just to the west of Da Nang, Viet Nam. During the 1960s, units from the US Marines and US Army engaged the 2nd North Vietnamese Division in heavy and close combat. Our mission was to keep the enemy from capturing the cities of Da Nang, Tam Ky, and Chu Lai and to pacify the area. We did prevent the enemy from capturing these vital cities, but the area was far from pacified.

Dan Sheehan is a third-generation military flyer. He was eager to test his skills as a Cobra gunship pilot in the theatre of combat - and then he got his chance, first, in East Timor, then during two tours of duty in Iraq. The scenes in Dan's military memoir crackle with tension and excitement as we follow his path into battle. Bullets pierce their Cobras as Dan and his buddies struggle to separate enemy fighters from civilian - ultimately deciding who lives and dies. Through blinding sandstorms, the smoke of battle and chaos of low-altitude firefights at night.

awesome book!
What did you love best about Pup?
His sarcasm!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Pup?
When he rescued the little girl and ran through the mines without knowing it.
What about Brian Hutchison’s performance did you like?
How you can tell when he changed characters and the various pitches in his voice.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It did make me laugh quite a few times!
Any additional comments?
I loved how I felt like I was literally in the story. There were times when I thought I was walking around the camp and at the battlegrounds. This book is very well put together and very detailed. Great job Chris!

I hope the true heroes don't hate me!
Prepare for a light, fun listen about a down on his luck, pessimistic soldier on his first tour in Korea. The inferiority complex causes him to make stupid mistakes, making him appear to others as a bumbling “cherry”. They called him Pup. His self-effacing demeanor and humor were honest and polite. The story chronicles this mild-mannered man coming to terms with the camaraderie, panic, and horror of war. It’s a wonderful story. At times you laugh, at others, you contemplate what Pup is going through, and sympathize. The addition of Mayumi is a bright light in the darkness and pain of war. The characters are amazing, all of them likable. The narration by Brian Hutchison is spot on. Highly recommend.

I resemble that remark
Pup is a hero for everyone out there slugging away. The author successfully uses Pup’s physical and social ineptitude (Yes I just used the word ineptitude) to create a slapstick character. He then taps Pup’s inner intellectual monologue to play the straight man. Thus creating a one man comedy duo. Bravo Mr Slater! Bravo.

Absolutely Fantastic!
You know that socially awkward new guy in every war story that does everything wrong, everyone makes fun and you can't help but cringe and yell "what are you doing?" every time they come into the story? Well here is his side of the story. Fair warning enjoyment of dark humor and sarcasm are required for this laugh out loud listen.
