Cleverly Written, Dynamic Story Telling

An amazing story that brought a night of terror into perspective.

Step into the shadows of the Vietnam War and join two young soldiers, alone in a listening post (LP), in the pitch-black jungle of Vietnam. The night seems to go on forever, and during times when nothing is happening, John Kowalski’s mind wanders back to memories of frightening situations he and his friends experienced growing up. innocent but equally terrifying at the time.

As kids, we instinctively run fast to escape imaginary or perceived danger. In childhood, there are imaginary monsters in the dark. In war, the monsters in the darkness are real.

Thirty enemy soldiers stop for a break just a few feet away from them. If they run…they die. If they fight…they die. They must confront their fears and find the courage to stand their ground. A gripping tale of survival and bravery.

Review by Gary F Jones:
This is a long short story or novella about a young man's response to fear from when he was 7 years old until he was in Vietnam in the early 1970s. The story alternates back and forth between things that scared him as he grew up in Detroit and the things that terrify him in the jungle of the Iron Triangle in Vietnam. The tales are engaging and pleasant to read.
