About this listen

Author of numerous New York Times best-sellers—including the epic chronicle of the Battle of Thermopylae, Gates of Fire—Steven Pressfield delivers novels of unmatched historical accuracy. In The Profession, Pressfield taps his considerable well of military knowledge to craft a piece of speculative fiction set in 2032. With corporate and private powers wielding their own military forces, an exiled American general plans to return to the U.S. and claim the presidency for his own. Only his closest confidant stands any chance of defeating him.

Pressfield is the master of military fiction. From the Peloponnese to the deserts of Libya during the Second World War, he captures the personalities, language, and life of soldiers better than any other author. The Profession was entertaining and connected with his earlier works. The narrator had a great voice and portrayed the protagonist well but please get him some help pronouncing military acronyms and jargon. CASEVAC, Aussie, and several other terms were mispronounced.

Entertaining military fiction, narrator needs some help
