"A riveting view behind the sniper rifle."---Marco Martinez, author of Hard Corps

"Will give you a personal look inside the mentally and physically demanding world of the marine sniper in combat, almost to the point where you can feel the recoil yourself."---SFC Frank R. Antenori, U.S. Army Special Forces (Ret.), and coauthor of Roughneck Nine-One

The ongoing War on Terror is unlike any conflict the United States armed forces have fought. There are no set battles. The fanatical enemy adheres to no warrior code or international law. Their only desire is to kill---or be killed.

That's where the snipers of the U.S. Marines, Army, and Navy SEALs come in....

Here, in their own words, are the compelling and gripping true stories of the snipers whose sole purpose is to eliminate any and all enemy threats with a single bullet. From the deserts and rubble-strewn streets of Iraq to the endless labyrinth of the remote Afghanistan mountain country, this is life and death beyond the front lines of battle and behind the scope of a high-powered rifle.

But these stories are not simply about the single shot of the sniper's rifle. They are about the mental discipline and psychological strength that such men must possess to accomplish their missions; the effect that the sniper's skill and reputation have on the enemy; and how they deal with the stress, fear, and brutal reality of their jobs both before and after the target is neutralized---and when the snipers finally return to the civilian world.

Part wartime chronicle, part psychological exploration of the warrior mind, and part expose into a secretive brotherhood of military snipers, Hunters is a must read for anyone who wants to learn the truth about war when it's fought shot by shot, bullet by bullet, and kill by kill.
