THIS IS A BOOK THAT SKILLFULLY SLICES AWAY THE FAT OF THE AMERICAN EGO. - DAVID MASSENGILL, AUTHOR OF RED SWARM
A MACHETE-RATTLING RIDE THAT BLENDS SCENES OF INTENSE CONFLICT WITH THOSE OF FRUSTRATED HUMANITY. - DAVID MATHEW, AUTHOR OF SICK DICE AND O MY DAYS
An arrogant American hedge fund analyst is sent to appraise an African mine that is controlled by a brutal warlord. When the financier is kidnapped by child soldiers and dragged into their bloody rebellion, he becomes entangled in their struggle and must choose between claiming the immense wealth he worked so hard for, or throwing it away and risking his life for a slim chance to save theirs.
Toy Soldiers explores themes of globalization, economic corruption, exploitation of children and courage against daunting adversity.
