Book Reviews of Suffer in Silence
Book Review: AMAZING AND INTENSE- A GREAT BOOK
Summary: 5 Stars
The author pulls you into the surf and takes you on a journey into the soul of SEAL training. The story feels brutishly honest and true. The characters feel real, you share their trials, successes, pain and agony. Whether it's the raw energy, harsh reality, sheer adrenaline or your morbid curiosity this book won't let you stop.
***As gripping and well written as Conroy's Lords of Discipline and Demille's Generals Daughter!***A MUST OWN BOOK***
Book Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
Knowing that I wouldn't last a day at Seal training I was impressed with the ability of the author to make it seem like you were right there with the guys; freezing in the 55 degree water, doing PT to failure, and the constant barage of yelling and insults.
If you have any interest into the lives of our most highly trained fighters then buy this book, it will open your eyes to what unbelievable lengths are human bodies can go.
Book Review: Amazing, enjoyed every second!
Summary: 5 Stars
A friend recommended "Suffer in Silence" to me. This was the first page turner I read in a long while. I cannot imagine what the journey through BUDS must be like, but after reading David Reid's novel, I feel like I have a pretty good idea. I have even more respect for SEALS and what they go through after reading this book. It is a great story and a great read. I was actually sad when I finished it because there was no more to read. I highly recommend it.Book Review: An Awe-inspiring Glimpse into BUD/S Training
Summary: 5 Stars
From the very first page I was hooked. The characters are well developed, the story flowed smoothly, and the detail on what goes on during the infamous BUD/S training is simply amazing. David Reid writes with a style that makes this an enjoyable read for everyone, whether you are familiar with the SEAL culture or not. This isn't just another dry book about the day-to-day training that takes place at Coronado, nor is this another ultra-macho fantasy/action story. Even though it is fiction, this book provides a sense of realism that is unlike any other SEAL book I have read. It is told from the point of view of someone the reader can easily relate to and is a great reminder that the men who go through BUD/S are real. These are not some Hollywood stereotypes. They are everyday guys who just happen to be going through the harshest military program in the world. Reid is able to strip away all of the glamour and bull---- surrounding the SEALS to give us a truly unprecedented look at BUD/S.
For those who are familiar with BUD/S and SEALS and are looking for an inside perspective, Reid's book will not disappoint. However, the novice will definitely not be overwhelmed by all of the jargon because Reid is able tie it into the story and explain it so well. This is truly a great book for anyone. I will definitely be looking for future books from this author.
Book Review: Be Proud of the best of our best.
Summary: 5 Stars
This book should make every American proud of our US Navy SEALs. The courage, the endurance, the willingness to never give up is almost unhuman. If you are a terrorist, you will read this book and be very afraid. God Bless the US Navy SEALs, who, as we read this, sleep upon hard hard rock or sand in some untold remote location, without glory or compensation. True American Heroes.
