Non-Fiction Biography
Groundbreaking, thrilling and revealing, The Reaper is the
astonishing memoir of Special Operations Direct Action
Sniper Nicholas Irving, the 3rd Ranger Battalion's deadliest
sniper with 33 confirmed kills, though his remarkable career
total, including probables, is unknown. Irving shares the true story of his extraordinary military
career, including his deployment to Afghanistan in the
summer of 2009, when he set another record, this time for
enemy kills on a single deployment. His teammates and chain
of command labeled him "The Reaper,” and his actions on the
battlefield became the stuff of legend, culminating in an
extraordinary face-off against an enemy sniper known simply
as The Chechnian. Irving’s astonishing first-person account of his development
into an expert assassin offers a fascinating and extremely
rare view of special operations combat missions through the
eyes of a Ranger sniper during the Global War on Terrorism.
From the brotherhood and sacrifice of teammates in battle to
the cold reality of taking a life to protect another, no
other book dives so deep inside the life of an Army sniper
on point.
