Book Description

Seals, the Warrior Breed December 1, 1997

It is the highest award a grateful nation can bestow upon its fighting men. To earn it, a soldier requires more than courage, more than dedication--valor that far surpasses that of his brothers-in-arms.

Twenty years after the first Navy UDT frogman fought and died at Peleiu and Normandy, a new breed of warrior has answered the call of an idealistic young Commander-in-Chief--going where no Americans have gone before, on missions no one else would dare. In a jungle was within a war, deep inside enemy territory, one unit--and one man--will write a glorious chapter in the proud SEALs history through unparalleled fortitude and terrible sacrifice--while learning the most brutal lesson of the hell called Vietnam: that the deadliest enemies of all might be those on their own side.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing..., November 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Medal of Honor (Seals: The Warrior Breed, Book 5) (Mass Market Paperback)
I, being 16 years old and fasinated by military genre books andsuch, find this book amazing. I've already read Purple Heart, BronzeStar, and Navy Cross. After reading Medal of Honor, the book series was getting better and better. This series is excellent and H. Jay Riker is an excellent writer. I wish I could meet the man behind these great novels. I'm now reading Silver Star (wasn't at the bookstore till recently) and I truely love it. I like the books about the SEALs over the UDT books, but without the UDT, there would be no SEALs. I only hope H. Jay Riker continues to write about SEALs and makes books like these.

5.0 out of 5 stars Action Packed!, January 26, 2000

Steve Bane (Bel Air, Maryland, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Medal of Honor (Seals: The Warrior Breed, Book 5) (Mass Market Paperback)
The 5th book delivers as much action as the previous 4 do! This book always keeps you on edge living out the adventures of Navy SEALs in Vietnam. I found it very hard to put down, and like all of Riker's other books, I couldn't put it down! I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Medal Of Honor takes the cake and cuts it up with a K-bar., March 27, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Medal of Honor (Seals: The Warrior Breed, Book 5) (Mass Market Paperback)
Powerful. . . H. Jay Riker has acted more than once as the Tom Clancy of the Vietnam War fictional genre. I have watched this field get bigger and bigger, from the Leonard B. Scotts, to the James Watson's, this genre has become more capturing. In Medal Of Honor, as well as the others of the series, Riker does not once let the reader escape the battlefield where the bullets fly, or the wars that go on inside the very characters in the story. From the dark waters of Vietnam to the streets of America, he takes you there, and hits you in the face with a full brunt of firepower. It's edge of your seat and pulls at your heart strings. He plunges you into the mind of the warrior as so few people can, makes you wonder in ways you didn't wonder before. Once again,H. Jay Riker takes the cake in his field. . .
