Morons of War

"Yes, Sloan Green has written the Catch-22 of America's drone wars. But this novel is so much more than that. It's also an indictment, a farce, and a backstage pass to the fundamental absurdity of the late-stage global war on terror. The truth has never been so funny. Don't be a moron: read this book."—Brian Castner, author of The Long Walk"...a funny, accomplished debut. I highly recommend it." — Kevin Powers, National Book Award Finalist and New York Times bestselling author of The Yellow BirdsKilling people from thousands of miles away has never been funnier!The year is 2014 and no weapon has proven more valuable in America's Global War on Terrorism than the MQ-9 Reaper. But who is piloting these deadly attack drones? An elite group of special operators? A shadowy government agency? Highly advanced artificial intelligence? Nope. Turns out, it's a bunch of morons.Step inside the TOP SECRET world of the Sixty-Seventh Reconnaissance Squadron and meet the bored, lazy, hungover morons with their fingers on the triggers of one of America's most lethal weapons.Part war novel, part office comedy, and based on the author's own experiences flying MQ-9 Reapers, Morons of War takes readers on an absurd, darkly humorous, and outrageously funny behind-the-scenes look at what it's really like to fly attack drones for the United States Air Force.
