Master Sergeant Joseph Cevera is a respected man, decorated soldier, and feared leader of one of the most highy trained and lethal Army units in the Afghanistan conflict. What happens when they unbreakable is broken? We see this erupting world through the eyes of a seasoned warrior as he is pushed to the edge of his humanity. SIMPLE MACHINES takes us deep into the interior of the American Army Ranger and the volatile combat zone of the Special Ops Team during a hundred days of deployment. This is a war novel with the rush of battle, agony of loss, and courage of the undefeated. It is not for the faint of heart or those who look romantically at war and heroes. The stark reality of life and death choices made during battle depict an anti-hero, damaged and questioning the price he and his men are asked to pay.
