Synopsis

2025 International Impact Book Award Winner.

John writes powerful descriptions of people, places, and things.

Gripping story that keeps you in the moment. The author paints a vivid picture that has you right in the middle of the action.

Thrilling with a lurking sense of constant danger and death.

In this page-turning story of bravery, fear, anger, and determination, the soldiers come to life.

Realistic and gritty. The author is a great storyteller

“When Can I Stop Running?” is the forerunner to this book.

Only a couple of hours had passed since returning to the firebase. Now, the sleep-deprived and weary First Platoon soldiers must go back out on another patrol to search through two areas of hostility from the night before. A thorough search may reveal items that were overlooked in the dark.

It was thought to be an easy patrol – two klicks out and two klicks back, count the dead bodies, and then return by lunch. At least, that was the plan.

The soldiers soon found themselves surrounded and in serious danger, all because their battalion commander’s thirst for body counts and fame drove them to take unnecessary risks. Outgunned and alone. Will they all survive? Get your copy to find out.

Sixpack, Polack, LG, and the bunch are back in this new installment from the award-winning author of “Cherries: A Vietnam War Novel.”


EDITORIAL REVIEWS:

“Wow... what an awesome read! Once I started reading, I was a captive and couldn’t put it down as I was so anxious to see what happened next. It is a professionally written story that brought back tons of memories of my time in Vietnam. John nailed it!”

• Joe Fair, author of “Call Sign Dracula: My Tour with the Black Scarves.”

“When reading Death in the Triangle, I could see all the faces, the sweaty jungle, hear all the mind-numbing yet terrifying sounds, smell all the wretched odors, and feel the deepest fears. You said it was fiction. It's too real to be that. Too honest to be that. A great sequel to When Can I Stop Running?”

• R Scott Ormond, author of “Shadow Soldier: Kilo Eleven.”

"Once the soldiers set out on their patrol, the action is nonstop. Podlaski puts the reader right in the thick of the danger and action in this short story! It truly gives an outsider a better understanding of what the Vietnam War was like.”

• Yvette M Calleiro, author of “The Chronicles of the Diasodz.”

“In “Death in the Triangle” John Podlaski weaves another excellent tale of a small infantry unit, fighting in the lethal caldron of Vietnam’s Iron Triangle. Follow Polack and other members of the 1st Platoon as they execute their difficult missions. Highly recommended!”

• Joe Campolo Jr, author of “The Kansas NCO trilogy” and “On War, Fishing & Philosophy.”

“Death in the Triangle reveals a richly detailed universe in exquisite detail, just as I remember it, with its sights, sounds, and smells. Readers will bear witness to the physical and mental hardships these young men overcame to complete the mission. Highly recommended.

• Christopher Gaynor, author of “A Soldier Boy Hears the Distant Guns”. His work also includes a feature story and photos in “Time Magazine.”

“In Death In The Triangle, John Podlaski’s third intriguing tome about the Vietnam War, John pulls you into the real experience of a combat soldier. John, a decorated veteran of that war, tells the story of the daily trials and tribulations of a group of veterans, as only someone who has ‘done that/been there’ can. You’ll cringe, weep, laugh, shudder, and feel this whole story like you were there..”

• Jerry Kunnath, outdoor writer, Member of the Michigan Outdoor Writers Association
