"Drinking alone now. All my buddies I would have partied with have gone home. So it is just me, the sky, the damn alcoholic dog, and the small Delta Force of bottles in the corner of the hutch."

Find peace in the midst of chaos in Thomas William Montgomery's stunning debut, "Viet Nam and Other Interruptions."

A fascinating collection of short stories, poetry, and commentaries that blend science fiction, fantasy, and brutal realism, Montgomery's writings provide an unprecedented glimpse into the effects of abuse and war on the human mind...and heart.

From discovering what it feels like to be lost inside a combat zone as night approaches with no way back to your base, to forming your last thoughts as you and your loved ones wait for imminent death, the stories in "Viet Nam and Other Interruptions" are certainly dark and often disturbing.

But Montgomery infuses light into the darkness as well, as he examines not only the depression, alcoholism, and self-mutilation that oftentimes characterizes war, but also the joy, hope, and ultimate peace that can be found when the dust settles.

Experience the madness and corruption of war - and the emergence of hope - in Thomas William Montgomery's second book in the series, Viet Nam and Other Interruptions. Commentaries, short stories, poetry, and even a sci-fi piece blending in a twisting way to expose the effects of war upon the human psyche as trauma lays hold long after the battle is over. With a uniqueness, even a kind of rawness that is rarely seen in literature today, Montgomery wades through PTSD and depression, anger and destructive orientation, and some of the darker parts of the human mind. Book Two blends itself nicely into the matrix of the first book in the series, complimenting the harsh realities and highlighting the hope and victories found in the small lighted places among the horrors. It is a compilation that will stun the beginner and intrigue the experienced reader.
