This rag-tag gang of has-beens has never worked together before, but Dwight Rocco Cavarra has less than a week to train them and lead them on the hairiest operation of their lives. It's not bad enough that they have to plow through an African civil war, infiltrate a fortified terrorist encampment and steal a black market tactical nuke from a mob of fanatic sociopaths - there are Israeli wild cards in play: two death-dealing Mossad agents who don't necessarily share Cavarra's agenda. When the mission is compromised before it has even started, Rocco and his Retreads are caught between bloodthirsty local warlords and the genocidal government in a fight to the death. And this battle might be just the first in the next world war.

Hell and Gone is an exciting action and adventure novel, highly recommended. - Midwest Book Review

One of my favorite things about this novel was that it portrayed the brutality and tragedy of combat while honoring the struggle of the men who fight. - Amazon Reviews

Hell and Gone by Henry Brown is a top-notch military thriller. The author takes great care to create characters that are believable and unique... Great writing creates scenes so well crafted that I felt like I was in a strange land in the middle of the action. ...I am very pleased to recommend this book to anyone that enjoys thrillers. -BookVisions

It has it all, it's contemporary, it's well developed, the plot is solid, the weapons and tactics are spot on and the writing style is easy to read and doesn't bog down in to much detail. - Jack Silkstone, author of the PRIMAL Series

An action novel that hits you like a brick through a plate glass window. - Jack Badelaire, author of the Commando Series

Hell and Gone is a military thriller that delivers the goods on the action, has vivid, realistic characters who interact with great dialogue, and presents some food for thought. If enough people chew on it, maybe the all too plausible scenario presented here will remain fiction, assuming it hasn't happened already. --The New Podler Review of Books

Characters carry the story and the plot turns out to be anything but what we expect from techno-thrillers or men's adventure. As a former soldier I was also impressed with the author's attention to detail and general accuracy in regards to weapons and tactics. - Jack Murphy, author of the Deckard Series
