Introducing Matt Rix...Australian commando. An explosive thriller from the heart of Afghanistan.

Outside the wire, Uruzghan Province, Afghanistan, 2010.... In the badlands of central Afghanistan, an Australian Special Forces platoon is fatally hit by a roadside bomb. A shadowy Taliban commander, codenamed 'Rapier', is identified as responsible for the deadly attack. Matt Rix, the ultra-tough commando who led the ambushed platoon, swears vengeance. Rix is one of Special Forces' most lethal operators. He'll neutralise Rapier - whatever it takes.

But in Afghanistan's brutal war, not all things are as they seem.

Critic Reviews

" The Fighting Season is military fiction of the first order: as tough as nails and packed with the insider knowledge of someone who has done it for real." (Matthew Reilly)

i have had the Honour of serving with Maj. Connolly, and the story he tells in this thriller is one of the best youll ever read, the names of the Operators may have been changed, but hearing their tale i know exactly who each is he is referring to

Thoughly enjoyed this story. The accuracy and extensive knowledge of the Australian Military is what made me respect the author and allow the story to flow so well. Showing all sides of the conflict was an interesting dynamic. The main focus on officers was a bit tedious at times, a bit more focus on the JNCOs and Diggers would have been great. This story captivated me from start to finish and time well spend to listen to. Keep up the good work.

A great story, greatly enhanced by accurate detail

Excellent story with well thought out characters. I thoroughly appreciated the additional points of view, as opposed as the often one sided western opinion that dominates military novels. Realistic action with a bloody good smattering of Aussie humour. What's not to love?

Fantastic
