Six Best Special Forces Military Fiction Novels

By Enid Hinton


Anybody can write about wars but not like an author with a military background. Some of the best Special Forces military fiction novels have been authored by ex-soldiers who tap into their immense firsthand experience in the battle field. This helps them to produce the most incredible literature even for ordinary citizens.

No Fortunate Son authored by Brad Taylor- the author has mastered character development and matched that with an excellent plot. This novel made it to the top of New York Times best sellers upon release. Taylor recounts a real scenario where an insignificant soldier was captured and the forces deployed all resources at their disposal to rescue him. In the novel, he recreates this scene but replaces the insignificant soldier with a soldier-member of a prominent American political family.

Autumn Fire written by Tom Wither- the book came out of over twenty years spent in a shadowy intelligence world. The scenes recreated in this fictional story happened in real life and made it to news headlines. The defeat of al-Qaeda leads to the emergence of a new group under Aziz. Their target is to cripple the national electricity grid and attack nuclear installations. A unit is assigned to eliminate the leader in order to stop their activities. The drama lies in his pursuit.

Battle Come Down by Flower Charlie- this novel is the fourth in a series drawn from the war on terrorism. The author begins in London that is on the verge of being grounded because of terrorism. It is interesting to walk with a soldier who was trained by extremists but now works with the forces in London. The wife is both a hindrance and an incredible asset in this war. Despite violence spreading allover the world, love prevails.

Days of Rage by Taylor Brad- Brad has emerged as a master of military intelligence and fiction. In this heart thumping action novel, Boko Haram lands weapons of mass destruction supplied by Russia. This takes the reader on an adventurous journey to their caves in Nigeria. A quagmire ensues since Russia and America are on opposite sides. The novel has very satisfying adventures.

Sand and Fire by Tom Young- reading through the novel feels like watching a situation unfold on newscast. It is about a chemical attack that is carried out on several international sites. The jihadists have marines as hostages and threaten to kill one every day. It is a battle with time as diplomats and soldiers struggle to find a resolution.

Secret Assault by Don Helin- the Vietnamese war provides a lot of fodder for writers. This story is based on My Lai massacre where an American unit is said to have killed dozens of people in a village in Vietnam. The rank and file of the army works tirelessly to stop this information from being made public. A letter by a soldier to congressional representative reveals the secret. The novel captures the division that resulted from the war with very vivid scenes.

Intelligence during missions remains a preserve of a click of participating soldiers. This is the only explanation you can give for the domination of ex-soldiers in the list of the best authors. Their novels are differentiated by accuracy and details that are not available to ordinary citizens. They therefore produce thrilling stories in this genre.
