Description

Following on from the bestseller ISIS Dawn, ISIS Dusk tells the final story of how the SAS, SBS, Delta and other special forces have been involved in the final push to help rid Iraq of Islamic State. It has been a fierce and bitter battle against a tenacious enemy who have used tactics and doctrine not too dissimilar to the Taliban and al- Qaeda. There has been both injury and death in the process with some missions being performed at the last minute in an attempt to rescue hostages. With Mosul about to fall and the the final main element of Islamic State ejected. It brings to an end another chapter for Iraq and its quest to rebuild itself after the removal of Saddam Hussein from power.

The war in Iraq and Syria has without a doubt been another great test of skill and the ability to overcome the odds against a fierce enemy. It shows how a handful of highly trained and highly skilled individuals can help turn the course of a war, supporting local forces helping to rid a country of an evil power. Islamic State are not finished though, this is a just one chapter of many more to come as Islamic State spread to Libya and still have a small foothold in Syria. Their plans to terrorise the world will continue for some time to come.
