Read full review ↗PRAISE FOR DEEP SCYTHE
Top Gun: Maverick meets The Dirty Dozen. Deep Scythe will throw you into the deep end of next-generation conflict, where peer adversaries, covert operations, and bleeding-edge tech collide across the global commons and hostile skies. Jarred Taylor delivers captivating action, authentic tactics, and geopolitical intrigue. Tactical. Entertaining. Unforgettable.
Deep Scythe is a fifth-generation asymmetric punch in the mouth. It perfectly encapsulates what makes the modern American fighting man second to none. This book isn't just an entertaining read — it's the playbook for modern warfare.
If you are curious about the creative nature of the modern-day warfighter, this book is for you. This isn't non-fiction, but it also isn't fair to call it pure fiction either. Deep Scythe is a peek into the psyche of the American soldier and aviator. The setting and premise are imaginary — the mentality, the camaraderie, the ingenuity, and most importantly, the desire to win at all costs, is not.
What starts as an insane idea morphs into a wildly unauthorized “friendly” training exercise and quickly turns into a full-scale naval panic when a handful of sarcastic aviators armed with expired energy drinks, fake radio call signs, and an unhealthy knowledge of Navy bureaucracy manage to penetrate a US Naval carrier's defense systems. Get ready for a ride!
“Trashman is the maestro of the battlefield. You won't see him, but he's the reason you're alive.”
“Fridge and Wilbor are going to conduct the loudest silent assault these radar towers have ever seen. Their job is to blind the eyes and break the ears.”
