An astonishing memoir of military courage at a remote outpost during the Vietnam War “A riveting, dead-true account in the tradition of Black Hawk Down and We Were Soldiers Once...and Young.”—Steven Pressfield, national bestselling author of The Lion’s Gate In October 1969, William Albracht, the youngest Green Beret captain in Vietnam, took command of a remote hilltop outpost called Firebase Kate held by only 27 American soldiers and 156 Montagnard militiamen. At dawn the next morning, three North Vietnamese Army regiments—some six thousand men—crossed the Cambodian border and attacked. Outnumbered three dozen to one, Albracht’s men held off the assault but, after five days, Kate’s defenders were out of ammo and water. Refusing to die or surrender, Albracht led his troops off the hill and on a daring night march through enemy lines. Abandoned in Hell is an astonishing memoir of leadership, sacrifice, and brutal violence, a riveting journey into Vietnam’s heart of darkness, and a compelling reminder of the transformational power of individual heroism. Not since Lone Survivor and We Were Soldiers Once...and Young has there been such a gripping and authentic account of battlefield courage. INCLUDES PHOTOS

Eberhard II smiled inwardly as he knelt and kissed the ring on the cold, dead hand of his father, King Eberhard I of Wurttemberg, a kingdom bordering Switzerland to the south, France to the west, Bavaria to the east and Hesse to the north (present-day Germany). He thought, "You wanted to cheat your own son, your own flesh and blood from the throne! What a shame, Father, that your horse fell and broke your neck before you could make it official. Just yesterday, with your knights surrounding you after the hunt, laughter and scorn was in your voice as you told them, and me, that you were going to declare your brother's son, Ulrich, to be the rightful heir. Now who's laughing, Father? This morning the crown was placed upon my head, and the princes and dukes are bowing to me. To me, Father!"

The central theme of Claws of the Raven hasn't varied much from the first book written by Derek Hart. Love is still a wonderful curse and humans go out of their way to complicate every step along the way. When all is said and done, even the author can't manipulate the characters to do and react in ways that are out of character. No matter how hard one tries to make it happen, men and women don't just fall in love and all is bliss. Whenever somebody is brave, or foolish enough, to say, "I love you," then instantly the complications begin. This time it's pirates and swashbuckling adventure at its best!
