Rubicon

Five paramilitary Navy SEAL operators defend the residents of a remote mountain farming village in Afghanistan from attacks by marauding Taliban. Led by the war-weary Hector, the operators and villagers form mutual bonds of honor and respect leading up to a climactic battle where the "Lions of Panjshir" are desperately outnumbered. Based on a story concept by Christopher McQuarrie, screenwriter of The Usual Suspects and director of the recent feature film Jack Reacher, this modern re-imagining of Akira Kurosawa's classic Seven Samurai set within the lens of the current Afghan conflict is given dramatic authenticity by co-writers Mark Long (The Silence of Our Friends, Shrapnel) and Dan Capel (founding member of SEAL Team Six), and includes a forward by first command officer of SEAL Team Six, military consultant Richard Marcinko. This deluxe limited edition hardcover comes packed with a sealed envelope containing story-related artifacts and documents pulled from within the world of Rubicon, expanding on the events in an interactive, puzzle-like fashion.
