"Harry's War" is the kind of thrilling short story that winds you up and takes you on a wildly entertaining rode filled with action, intrigue, hair-raising battles and a very satisfying conclusion. Ed Benjamin does a wonderful job of keeping you on the edge of your seat as fighter pilot Harry Miles is tasked with an in-air battle, using his skills and the power of his F-15C Eagle to defend himself and his country against the Iranian fighter jet. The story is complex, delving into political and sociological issues that are always at play during war, adding layer upon layer of intrigue to this exciting short story. The action adventure thriller is well-written with vivid imagery, strong dialogue, authentic characters and an engaging narrative style that really sucks you into Harry's thoughts and feelings during the story. From beginning to end this was a fun and action-packed tale that I thoroughly enjoyed... it was well worth the read.
