Story5 out of 5 stars 18
A classical epic told from the point of view as modern warriors would see it. What happens when the war’s over, but the world didn’t survive? Communications are down. Food, fuel, and ammunition are low, and there’s no one to watch your back besides your demons. Continue with Hank and Doc on their odyssey from Russia back to their homes in California. Are the cannibals, giants, ghosts, and goddesses real? Or are they just flames from the fire in an insane man’s mind? The bombs have been dropped, the Earth has been set ablaze, and intruders are desecrating the home front

Hank and his trusty Corpsman, "Doc," thought they knew what to expect when they were deployed to Iraq, but after getting trapped in an ancient Babylonian temple, things got weird. Following months of combat in a war that wouldn't end, Hank returns to California to face a different type of immigrant—the kind that comes from space.

It's time travel for Vet's...

I knew Tripp for his bullshitting at the smoke pit, and guitar playing, and Gundam jacket patches. He knew the Corps I went looking for better than anyone I ever met. For those of you who had the privilege of experiencing the Corps in the Glory days where it served a purpose other than filling chucks, he captured the beauty of it perfectly here. Every stupid stigma or stereotypical meme about the Corps and more is within these covers man. It's a blast to listen to, especially as a Veteran.
If you like sci fi, and you get a kick out of reminiscing on days while enlisted from time to time, this shit is the fix for you, I can guarantee it.
