Don Rearden Pořadí knih
Don Rearden čerpá inspiraci ze svého dětství na Aljašské tundře a z kultury Yupik, která formovala jeho pohled na svět a jeho psaní. Jeho díla se často vrací k postavám a příběhům z tohoto odlehlého prostředí a snaží se osvětlit každodenní boje lidí žijících ve venkovské Aljašce. Rearden, který se zabývá také filmovým scénářem a poezií, je uznávaným autorem, jehož styl je ovlivněn aljašskou divočinou i učením Daniela Quinna. Jeho texty obvykle gradují v napínavém závěru, který čtenáře nutí přemýšlet.

Never Quit is the true story of how Jimmy Settle, an Alaskan shoe store clerk, became a Special Forces Operator and war hero. After being shot in the head during a dangerous high mountain operation in the rugged Watapur Valley in Afghanistan, Jimmy returns to battle with his teammates for a heroic rescue, the bullet fragments stitched over and still in his skull. In a cross between a suicide rescue mission and an against-all-odds mountain battle, his team of PJs risk their lives again in an epic firefight. When his helicopter is hit and begins leaking fuel, Jimmy finds himself in the worst possible position as a rescue specialist―forced to leave members from his own team behind. Jimmy will have to risk everything to get back into the battle and bring back his brothers. From death-defying Alaskan wilderness training, wild rescues, and vicious battles against the Taliban and Al Qaeda, Never Quit is an explosive special operations memoir unlike any that has come before, and the true story of a man from humble beginnings who became an American hero.
