Publisher's Summary

January 1991: IRAQ. Eight members of the SAS regiment embark upon a top-secret mission to infiltrate deep behind enemy lines. Under the command of Sergeant Andy McNab, they are to sever a vital underground communication link and to seek and destroy mobile Scud launchers. Their call sign: BRAVO TWO ZERO.

Each laden with 15 stones of equipment, they tab 20km across the desert to reach their objective. But within days, their location is compromised. After a fierce fire fight, they are forced into evasive action. Four men are captured. Three die. Only one escapes.

For the survivors, however, the worst ordeal is yet to come. Delivered to Baghdad, they are tortured with a savagery for which not even their intensive SAS training has prepared them.

Twenty years from its first publication, Bravo Two Zero still sets the gold standard for military memoirs. It is a breathtaking account of Special Forces soldiering: an action-packed chronicle of superhuman courage, endurance, and dark humour in the face of overwhelming odds.

Great story (but Mark the KIWI!??)

An incredible story of resilience and courage. The narrator thinks Kiwis are the same thing as Aussies because that's how he voiced Mark the Kiwi. Really got my goat. Kiwis are no more Aussie than Canadians are American. We're not even the same country! Jeez! Marked the performance down for that.

Book is better than audio

I read this book many years ago and was hooked, I couldn't put it down! I expected the same from the audio version but was left disappointed. The narration is sub par and the story also doesn't seem to go into enough detail. Not worth the listen in my opinion

Unique telling.

I loved this rendition, and proud that someone as well known as Mr McNab highlights the struggles of our serving forces.
Very well written and narrated.

Fantastic!

The narration is perfect for this book. I would stay in my car an extra 10 minutes just to listen to the end of a chapter. Do yourself a favour and give it a listen.
