Andy McNab

Just recently I have started to military books by Andy McNab. He was a British soldier who was captured behind enemy lines in Iraq in the Gulf War. He got out alive and wrote a book about it (Bravo Two Zero) and I can say if you are into those types of books, it makes a brilliant read.

He has started to write fiction since then and I have started to read a series called "The Boy Soldier" and I wasn't let down.
I recommend anything by him. :)
