Picked up by a larger publisher: as a consequence; the retitled, second, and final edition of the cult hit, Spent Shell Casings.
Joining the Marines in 2002, David Rose signed up to go fight … and to go die. On this grim path, rather than finding a violent death, he would find family, purpose, and a brotherhood amid the misfit world of the war fighter.
With a time frame centered on the 2004 battle of Fallujah, No Joy sees David recounting madcap tales of Muay Thai bouts in seedy garages, a bizarre stint as a street cop, being on the other side of the badge, becoming a veteran of the psych ward, and more. It’s an irreverently told story that doesn’t just tell one man’s tale, but speaks to the necessary question: What really draws modern young men to war?
That was horrible. Let’s do it again.
