War...a different century, a different country, a different purpose.

Outlaw Platoon: Heroes, Renegades, Infidels, and the Brotherhood of War in Afghanistan [Kindle Edition]
Sean Parnell (Author), John Bruning (Author)

A riveting story of American fighting men, Outlaw Platoon is Lieutenant Sean Parnell’s stunning personal account of the legendary U.S. Army’s 10th Mountain Division’s heroic stand in the mountains of Afghanistan.

Acclaimed for its vivid, poignant, and honest recreation of sixteen brutal months of nearly continuous battle in the deadly Hindu Kesh, Outlaw Platoon is a Band of Brothers or We Were Soldiers Once and Young for the early 21st century—an action-packed, highly emotional true story of enormous sacrifice and bravery.

A magnificent account of heroes, renegades, infidels, and brothers, it stands with Sebastian Junger’s War as one of the most important books to yet emerge from the heat, smoke, and fire of America’s War in Afghanistan.

Featured Author of the Week, Scott Langrel

Scott Langrel was born and raised in Big Stone Gap, Virginia, a town nestled in the mountains of Appalachia. Which, by the way, is pronounced “apple-atcha”, not “a-puh-lay-shua”. His favorite TV shows as a kid were “Kolchak: The Night Stalker” and “Night Gallery” with Rod Serling. He was also drawn to books with larger-than-life heroes such as Doc Savage and Robert E. Howard’s Solomon Kane. He was (and still is) a big X-files fan, along with Lost, Supernatural, and The Walking Dead.
Scott prefers horror and thrillers where there is a real, supernatural villain as opposed to psychological horror, and he tries to incorporate such characters into his stories.
