Publisher's summary

You can run, but you can’t hide from U.S. Army Rangers

With the armies of the enemy smashed at the final battle for the desert port city, the Rangers return to their primary mission to do what they do best: eliminate a high-value target with extreme violence of action deep inside hostile territory.

Failure is not an option—even if that target is a ten-thousand-year-old undead sorcerer of incredible power surrounded by dark, deadly cabals and savage monsters of myth and fable that are all too real.

Raids, infiltration, and ambush—and whatever means are necessary—bring the relentless Rangers straight into direct conflict with the dark forces of the Valley of Kings and Priests, where Sût the Undying dreams horrible nightmares of dark magic in a fantastic pyramid more fortress than eternal tomb, intent on conquering the Ruin... and with one final terrible card to play.

It’s time to breach and clear for all the marbles in a high-stakes game of Hide and Go Kill.

Don’t Forget Nothin’.

Coffee

I’ve finally embraced the side, tangents that Talker goes on and can’t get enough of them. Great continuation of story. great AAR. Can’t wait for the next book.

Another fantastic tale from the Ruin!

I don't know how they write another book in a series and it is better than the last one every single time. I liked the side quest stories but I had really missed the way the story is told from Talker's perspective.

I am not a veteran but hold them in the highest regard. The way Talker tells the story makes him more relatable for the average listener than the other stories.

This review would not be complete without mentioning how good Christopher Ryan Grant's narration is. I couldn't imagine anyone else telling these stories.

Thanks for including the AAR. It really helps those of us understand a small part of what the life of Rangers is like and gives us an even more exalted view of them.

The AAR WITH Mathew’s mom. The book was great as well!

The entire story. CR Grant was wonderful
Narrator! More to come hopefully! Great series and great storyline.

he lives

i theroly enjoyed this book, but to hear these words means so much. for the writers to do this is one of the more powerful things i have listened to. and i guess all i can say is thank you.

Got me again

I was going to complain about the fact that this book is really short. And it is. (please write longer stories)

But I got it with a good discount, and the story is like always really good, and the interview at the end just powerfully closed with this books' story, and I am glad I listened to the end. Thank you.

I enjoy the story and the narrator is very good.

It was a long wait for such a short story. I feel like the first half of this book was fluff just to add more pages. I’m still looking forward to the next book.

Over Too Soon

Great saga, great performance. While there are certainly terrific "spin offs" this book reminds me that this particular saga is coming to an all too soon conclusion.
The AAR will gut punch you so don't listen to it in a public place.
We are forever in the debt of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for so many who are so undeserving.

Keeps getting better!

Love the way the story keeps evolving. Fantastic writing and narration. Coffee,Ranger get some.

Another Electric Entry

Absolutely love the world that's continuing to be built and Talker and the team's growth is very cool to see. This entry felt a bit too short though and I think it checks in as the shortest entry in the series, hope we get more ASAP!

love how the ruin reveals

Nick and Jason do a beautiful job with this story as usual! love the use of the characters we love! incredible world building by these guys.
