		Andy McNab was abandoned at birth, spent his schooldays with troublemakers and was an 'emotional dwarf' for years after he left the SAS.
		McNab's philosophy is summed up by a phrase he repeats throughout our conversation: "Just get on with it." This modus operandi applies to fighting the IRA, yomping across the Iraqi desert or writing a new book.
		Quite apart from his raw intelligence and single-minded determination, McNab's saving grace is an ability to laugh at the myth of SAS machismo that is the source of his fame.

		As McNab points out however, in a speech he recalls from his regimental commander, the true mettle of a soldier is measured not only by his successes, but by how he performs when all hell has broken loose and the mission seems to be a total failure.
		Mcnab was just to make the story more interesting, and most of the stuff in Bravo Two Zero is so unbelievable in the first place, it cannot reasonably be taken to be non-fiction.
		McNab and others are strained to the limit physically and mentally, having both the Iraqis and the elements as enemies.

		Andy McNab lives the life many dream of but do not have the cahones to do so.
		Rather than a lot of gung ho, testosterone filled bull, McNab is straightforward and describes his training and covert SAS assignments casually and matter of factly.
		For Andy McNab's best work, read BRAVO TWO ZERO, the harrowing account of McNab's duty in Iraq and unfortunate capture by Iraqi forces during Gulf War I. You get a much more detailed account of what's involved in planning and executing a mission in the SAS, and the story is much more involving.

		McNab might initially have seemed to be some kind of briefly shining star in the bestseller firmament, his SAS experience and well-advertised pseudonym guaranteeing a couple of toughly authentic thrillers in the style of Bravo Two Zero, and no more.
		McNab (which is not his name as a matter of interest) has actually been there and done it, he has a huge edge over other thriller writers.
		McNab's attention to detail and writing style are the only thing that save this book from being totally forgettable.

	Amazon.co.uk: Bravo Two-Zero: Books: Andy McNab (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		This is McNab's account of the mission - a chronicle of courage, endurance and dark humour in the face of extreme cold, enemy attack, capture, and torture of a savagery and relentlessness for which not even their intensive SAS training had prepared them.
		As a work of fiction (which McNab should stick to) this is very good, but he's shown no respect for his comrades or the truth, and in doing so disrespected his regiment.
		McNab made some bad decisions in horrendous conditions and the mission went wrong costing the lives of some of the team.

	Movie Review \| Bravo Two Zero (1999) Sean Bean, Andy McNab
		Led by Andy McNab (Sean Bean), whose true-account book of the same name the movie is based on, the 8-men platoon ends up lost, with malfunctioning radio gear, and surrounded by a huge contingency of Iraqis.
		Aside from a few insights McNab gives us into the state of a soldier during battle and torture via voiceover narration, I really didn't find McNab to be a good lead.
		The story of McNab's lost patrol is fascinating, and rather it's all true or has some fictionalized parts as some have claimed, the film does seemed too rushed.
