Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
THE EXTRAORDINARY NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER.
Battle Scars tells the story of Jason Fox's career as an elite operator, from the gunfights, hostage rescues, daring escapes and heroic endeavours that defined his service, to a very different kind of battle that awaited him at home.
After more than two decades of active duty, Foxy was diagnosed with complex PTSD, forcing him to leave the military brotherhood and confront the hard reality of what follows. What happens when you become your own enemy? How do you keep on fighting when life itself no longer feels worth fighting for?
Unflinchingly honest, Battle Scars is a breathtaking account of Special Forces soldiering: a chronicle of operational bravery, and of superhuman courage on and off the battlefield.
'The most important book you'll ever read... Battle Scars will save lives.' TOM MARCUS, author of SOLDIER SPY
'A vivid, searing account of a life at war.' BEAR GRYLLS
'A must read.' ANT MIDDLETON, bestselling author of FIRST MAN IN.

Interesting content, narration not great
The overall content is pretty good but Jason Fox's narration was mediocre at best. So much so that I would not recommend this audio book

Didn’t know how much I needed to hear this story
I admire & respect people who are not afraid to show vulnerability. I believe more people should do it. Honestly cannot thank you enough for this book Jason you have given people so much hope with your open & honest story. Even people who aren’t suffering from mental health can benefit from listening to this book as it gives an insight into peoples behaviour instead of people assuming someone is just being funny or angry for nothing it will hopefully make a lot of people consider the fact that it could be there mental illness that’s making them react in a certain way not the actual person.

Exceptional insight into a harsh path
Superb book that shows the strength needed for making the right decisions.
I, like many others have been through similar paths and it is somewhat warming to be able to relate to the journey, albeit with a very different catalyst
