Book Reviews of Kill Bin Laden: A Delta Force Commander's Account of the Hunt for the World's Most Wanted Man

Book Review: 4 1/2 Stars! An addicting book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I just recently finished Kill Bin Laden, and it was truly addicting. When I first started reading it, I thought it would be hard to shake the fact that, as we all know, they didn't Kill bin Laden, but it wasn't. Dalton Fury describes the rigorous and painful procedure it takes to be a Delta officer, and also covers a few missions unrelated to the one in Tora Bora while still covering just how much danger their lives are in 24/7 throughout their attempts to make this world a safer place. If you want to know just how difficult the mission truly was, especially with all the shenanigans pulled by the Delta's Afghan "allies," then you should read this book. I was going to originally give the book 4 stars as the book was winding down, but the ending was a real curveball, and very sad. So I must give it 4 1/2 stars. After reading that book, it has been difficult to find another one that keeps my attention like Kill Bin Laden.
