I do respect the guy who wrote the book. But the book itself is the bloated version of the 2014 speech without much of additional information. I'd not read it if I knew about the speech first (which is only 20 minutes btw)

It's a good book and a quick read. SEALs are admired for a reason and it's always good to hear from one of them. The experiences and the lessons are inspiring.

I'd have given 5 stars if I was going to rate the inspirational speech on youtube. But for the book just 3 stars. I didn't like the style, it was not coherent. And also too expensive for such a small book. I suggest you just watch the video on youtube and save your time and money.
