Journeys to Three Worlds Gone Mad

As the author of The World’s Most Dangerous Places, Robert Young Pelton has come to know some of the most unusual and dangerous individuals in the world. An iconoclast in the world of adventure, few things have deterred him from his quest, whether they be a terrorist bomb attack in Uganda, artillery bombardment in Afghanistan, exposure in the mountains of Tajikistan, a plane crash in Borneo, killer bees in Tanzania, or an Absolut-soaked discussion with Colombian rebels on whether or not he should be kidnapped. In The Hunter, The Hammer, and Heaven, Pelton introduces an extraordinary cast of characters from three of the most war-ravaged countries on earth—the West African country of Sierra Leone, the breakaway republic of Chechnya, and the mysterious island in the South Pacific called Bougainville. In each location, he provides a firsthand exploration of important new developments in conflict and a unique insight into the forces that are shaping the world’s future. Join Pelton as he: · enters the Jihad in Chechnya with three traveling companions—an American mujahid who wants to die, a young woman entering her first war as a journalist, and a grumpy cameraman. Pelton brings his motley crew along the secret muj trail from America to Georgia to meet the Chechen rebels as the Russian Army sends in a massive army of 150,000 soldiers to subdue the anarchistic republic in their own “War on Terror.” His odyssey through terrorist-filled bunkers, suicide squad–manned front lines, SCUD missile attacks, and terrified civilians leads to a desperate escape from the beleaguered city of Grozny. · journeys into the postapocalyptic darkness of Sierra Leone—a small, shattered country emerging from a decade of cruel and nihilistic warfare. As he wanders through the world’s most expensive peacekeeping mission, he meets an ex-mercenary who hunts pirates, a ragtag militia whose members believe they have supernatural powers, and white men with “diamond fever.” (more) · chronicles his two-year odyssey to meet one of the most elusive rebel leaders in the world—an enigmatic man named Francis Ona who has survived numerous assassination attempts and who threatens to kill any white man who sets foot on his tiny island in the South Pacific. In the course of his travels, Pelton meets a cast of colorful and sometimes hilarious characters, from a drunken guide who offers his niece to visitors, to accountants who offer complete armies to desperate governments. As Pelton makes his way to the misty island of Bougainville and closer to Francis Ona, he discovers that the mysterious leader is convinced that Pelton is coming to kill him. Filled with tension and intrigue, The Hunter, The Hammer, and Heaven offers a dramatic vision of war and the people who survive it.
