In writing this moving and incredibly honest book, Jeremiah Workman shows as much courage as he did in Fallujah. His story gives hope to everyone who struggles that they, too, can overcome if they just keep fighting one day at a time, one battle at a time, one victory at a time. Donovan Campbell, author of the New York Times bestseller Joker One--Donovan Campbell (09/26/2011)

A raw, heartfelt account of how a man of valor lost his bearings and eventually found the courage to share his story. -Bing West Searing. . . . In its depiction of combat, Shadow of the Sword ranks with Marcus Luttrell's Lone Survivor. -Wall Street Journal This superior addition to the literature on the Iraq War is an exceptionally vivid account of combat and its aftermath. . . . Workman's testimony gives hope that those suffering the nightmare of PTSD can free themselves sufficiently to avoid becoming additional casualties of the current war. -Booklist An important book about a debilitating injury that thousands of warriors struggle with each day. It is only fair that Americans understand the true costs of war. Be informed. Be inspired. Read this book. -Wesley R.
