About this listen

Into the Darkness is unlike any book you’ve ever listened to. Dave Fielding’s gritty, no-holds-barred memoir is not just a tale of covert operations and daring takedowns of the planet's most notorious terrorists in the hostile terrains of Iraq and Syria. It's a raw, unflinching look at the man behind the mission, whose personal life crumbled even as he fought against the darkness both without and within. Fielding's story is a harrowing journey through the underbelly of mental anguish, where the specter of suicide loomed large, and the battle was not just in surviving the external threats but confronting the demons that whispered from the shadows of his mind.

This book is a testament to the battles fought in silence, the ones that rage fiercer than any faced on the battlefield. The path to redemption you’ll experience in this book is a daily struggle for healing, a fight to find compassion within and the courage to sit with oneself amidst the storm. This book doesn't just tell a story—it implores you to face your own darkness and emerge victorious, one day at a time.

After listening to a podcast where he was a guest I was hoping to hear more of Dave’s backstory. Growing up, stories from his time in an ODA, etc… so I have to admit that I was a little disappointed. I’m giving this book 5 stars though because there are people that need to hear it. After losing a brother and a dad to suicide I needed to hear it but didn’t realize it. Thank you for your service Dave and thank you for your story.

Far too much drama, not much of a story for first 6 chapters. Relationship book about high maintenance guy and girls

Middle school Drama memoir… not a fan

Dave's authenticity and humility really come through in this book. It shows that even the toughest people have personal demons they must overcome. The challenges he shares are common for anyone who has deployed, not just for operators. 10/10 recommend

Fantastic listen

That old saying never judge a book by its cover. I made a mistake thinking that the fantastic cover showing masculinity and war I assumed that the The book would have the same topics within it But boy was I wrong. The majority of this book is him just complaining about his divorce and his new girlfriend not working out I thought if I slugged through these Sob stories That there would be at least a decent pay out at the end of the store. But no I was wrong again It was the most anticlimactic ending for a "war" book.

Disappointing

as an SF soldier, an avid audiobook listener, I wish I'd read a McDonald's drive-thru menu instead. all he did. the entire book is wine and cry. at some point I started rooting for his ex-girlfriend and ex-wife, at one point I even started to root for the Iranian missiles. if I compare this book to pizzas, this book is like the Frozen generic pizza that you get from the grocery store when you drop the pizza on the floor and eat the cardboard piece from underneath the pizza instead for dinner.

I still have no idea what the point of the book is.
