This is the true story of Ephraim Mattos, a former US Navy SEAL, and what he witnessed while volunteering as a frontline combat medic during the historic battle to retake Mosul from ISIS - the deadliest urban combat the world has seen since WWII.

After leaving the US Navy SEAL teams in spring of 2017, Ephraim Mattos, age 24, flew to Iraq to join a small group of volunteer humanitarians known as the Free Burma Rangers, who were working on the front lines of the war on ISIS. Until being shot by ISIS on a suicidal rescue mission, Mattos witnessed unexplainable acts of courage and sacrifice by the Free Burma Rangers, who, while under heavy machine gun and mortar fire, assaulted across ISIS minefields, used themselves as human shields, and sprinted down ISIS-infested streets - all to retrieve wounded civilians.

In City of Death: Humanitarian Warriors in the Battle of Mosul, Mattos recounts in vivid detail what he saw and felt while he and the other Free Burma Rangers evacuated the wounded, conducted rescue missions, and at times fought shoulder-to-shoulder with the Iraqi Army against ISIS. Filled with raw and emotional descriptions of what it's like to come face-to-face with death, this is the harrowing and uplifting true story of a small group of men who risked everything to save the lives of the Iraqi people and who followed the credence, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends".

As the coauthor of the number-one New York Times best-selling American Sniper, Scott McEwen has teamed up with Mattos to help share an unforgettable tale of an American warrior turned humanitarian forced to fight his way into and out of a hell on earth created by ISIS.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Ephraim Mattos has demonstrated a rare level of public virtue and commitment to humanity. City of Death is a sobering reminder of the challenges we face on this earth, but stories like Ephraim's inspire us to press on. Books detailing the lives of Special Forces heroes are not uncommon these days. However, Ephraim's unique story of combat and sacrifice AFTER leaving the military will leave a lasting impression on the reader." (Tim Ballard, founder and CEO of Operation Underground Railroad)

"In combat it's not about the number of lives you take, it's about the number of lives you save. Ephraim did not only fight the toughest terrorists in the world during the Battle of Mosul, but he also saved numerous innocent Iraqi lives. He is the true definition of an American freedom fighter." (Hamody Jasim, Sgt. Major Iraqi Army (Ret.) and author of The Terrorist Whisperer)

"Ephraim's story is a taut real-life thriller. His vivid and brilliantly reported account of events on the front-lines gives the reader a real dose of reality. He has a unique way of storytelling that makes this book a page-turner." (Rudolph Atallah, lieutenant colonel (ret.), former Africa counterterrorism director, Office of the Secretary of Defense)

It was an enticing read (listen). It was very interesting hearing the whole encounter being told by the man that encountered and lived it.

Such an invigorating and inspiring book.

Ephraim is the definition of heart, soul and compassion! He and berma rangers are doing gods work! Ephraim I’m so thankful for your decision to share your uncanny account with all of us who could only imagine what it would be like but your account proves that our imaginations weren’t even close to the real happening !! Much love from Minnesota

A story every man, woman and child should read!

Great story about some very brave, selfless, people. I never knew groups like the Free Burma Rangers existed before this, so it opened my eyes to heroes outside our Military.

Can't recommend it more!

This is a great testimony to how God is working even in the chaos of war. It brings to light some of the great people that are out there putting themselves in harms way for others. Ephraim, David and the FBR are extraordinary individuals. It was a privilege to be able to hear part of their story.

Great Book

This book is a pretty heavy read, so don't listen during lunch. There's dead babies.

Good look into fighting against ISIS

I didn't stop listening for two days except to sleep. The courage it took for the people in this book to set aside the comfort of the first world to go fight and render medical aid on behalf of those forgotten or overlooked is nothing short of awe inspiring. An amazing story of humbleness, tenacity and courage that everyone should read. That there are people out there like the Free Burma Rangers gives me hope for humanity. Amazing people.

Eye-opening and gripping

As a Veteran who fought in Mosul and North Iraq, I felt the moral conflict that Ephraim describes. this Moral conflict increased after ISIS took North Iraq. this is a must read for all warriors of faith.
