Read&Download Fearless: The Undaunted Courage and Ultimate Sacrifice of Navy SEAL Team SIX Operator Adam Brown by Eric Blehm Online
Go deep into SEAL Team SIX, straight to the heart of one
of its most legendary operators.
When Navy SEAL
Adam Brown woke up on March 17, 2010, he didn’t know he would die
that night in the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan—but he was
ready. In a letter to his children, not meant to be seen unless the
worst happened, he wrote, “I’m not afraid of anything that
might happen to me on this earth, because I know no matter what, nothing
can take my spirit from me.”
Fearless is the
story of a man of extremes, whose courage and determination were fueled
by faith, family, and the love of a woman. It’s about a man who
waged a war against his own worst impulses, including drug addiction,
and persevered to reach the top tier of the U.S. military. In a deeply
personal and absorbing chronicle, Fearless reveals a glimpse
inside the SEAL Team SIX brotherhood, and presents an indelible portrait
of a highly trained warrior whose final act of bravery led to the
ultimate sacrifice.
Adam Brown was a devoted man who was an
unlikely hero but a true warrior, described by all who knew him
as…fearless.
“As a rule, we don’t endorse
books or movies or anything regarding the command where I work—and
Adam Brown worked—but as the author writes
in Fearless, ‘you have to know the rules, so you know
when to bend or break them.’ This is one of those times. Read this
book. Period. It succeeds where all the others have failed.”
—SEAL Team SIX Operator

Book Review - Fearless by Eric BlehmMay 31, 2012
Last week I received a copy of a book called “Fearless†by Eric Blehm to review. Little did I know when I started this book that by the end of it, I would be moved to emotion like I rarely am. This book is a game changer on so many levels. I honestly won’t be able to find the words in this review to express how much I wish people would get a copy and read it for themselves. It is the remarkable story of one man, his story, his struggles, his humility, his family, his addictions and oh, by the Last week I received a copy of a book called “Fearless†by Eric Blehm to review.

I honestly won’t be able to find the words in this review to express how much I wish people would get a copy and read it for themselves. It is the remarkable story of one man, his story, his struggles, his humility, his family, his addictions and oh, by the way, he was a member of the “Green Team†on SEAL team six (the same SEAL team that killed Osama Bin Laden). Again, I struggle with words to give this book a full review.May 18, 2012
I struggled like crazy to get through this book. I love Adam and Kelley and the people within this story, but the writing is horrible and trying to read through it was not unlike choking through the worst dry sandwich ever. I'm still hoping that the reason for its juvenile pacing and shallow glimpses into these extraordinary peoples' lives is because Blehm wants to get to the meat of the matter as quickly as possible. No matter, it's strange and unpalatable.Dec 30, 2012
I think a lot of people rate this as 5 starts because anything less may be considered to be not "patriotic". The fact is that this book is good, but not great. It is an interesting read at points, less than interesting at other points.Apr 13, 2013
I was reluctant to begin reading this book because I know Adam's father and brother. By knowing how the story ends, I knew it was going to be very difficult for me to read.May 22, 2012
***If you only read one book this year, make it this one in honor of this courageous SEAL!!!Jun 17, 2012
Right-wing Christian propaganda about zero dimensional bad boy turned do-gooder.May 27, 2012
I don't know what more to say other than this was not only an excellent story, but the author did a wonderful job telling it.Sep 11, 2012
Everyone has been hearing about the Navy SEAL novel "No Easy Day". I personally think the guy who wrote it may have put himself and family and other SEAL team members in harmsway.Sep 09, 2012
Wow... wow.... wow! Done and everything from halfway through is even more so now.... Love it! Gives me even more pride and gratitude in our Military and Allied Forces...Jun 20, 2012
WOW! Thats all that comes to mind. Alot of military memoirs (especially SEALS Books) spend the first 5 chapters covering BUD/S Training. If you have read books before you often get bored with reading the the same breakdowns of how hard,tough and grueling the training is. I am NOT taking away from this at all as these are warriors. Fearless brings you into WHO Adam really was. From a goofy kid, prankster and respectful child to his dark days battling addiction and jail time. To read about someone WOW!

To read about someone taking their life from the lowest point possible and giving it their all to become so committed to his wife, his family and his children let alone his brothers in arms was an amazing read. I read this book in less than 24 hours as i could not put it down.May 21, 2012
Adam Brown's life ended in an isolated military clinic in the mountains of Afghanistan, his body riddled with AK-47bullet holes from Taliban militia. However, Adam Brown's legacy lives on, described in his biography by author Eric Blehm. The book, Fearless ,released today (May 22) is a moving account of the struggles, redemption, and sacrifice of Adam Brown.Sep 16, 2012

Fearless? You would be surprised to know that this book is a love story. Every book about heroes is a love story.Jun 10, 2012
One of Adam Brown’s final wishes, written by hand on his CACO form, was that his spiritual testimony—his complete story—be told, including “my life before I met Jesus Christ and Kelley.†You can appreciate now just how fearless Adam had been when he requested others to share that dark period [of drugs and addiction] from his past. Even in death, he selflessly and publicly risked tainting his own legacy so that others might be inspired to seek faith and overcome their own struggles.

This book was utterly HEARTWRENCHINGNov 11, 2013
This book will touch you. It's not the regular book about a fallen service person. Here we take a more personal look at the life of a human being...his family, their lives and how death effects them.Feb 15, 2012
Incredible story. Simply a must read. Adam Brown was a true hero, a real hero with struggles and failures, yet an incredible passion for life and an incredible determination. I just finished this, and I am speechless. Read it.Oct 07, 2012
This book set out to accomplish two things: 1. tell the story of SEAL Adam Brown who made the ultimate sacrifice and 2. show the human-side of SEALs. In these objectives, this book rates 5 stars in my opinion. Adam Brown was a truly remarkable individual that sank to crazy lows but then righted himself to become one of the most elite warriors in the world as part of SEAL Team SIX. His story is truly inspirational.

Adam Brown was a truly remarkable individual that sank to crazy lows but then righted himself to become one of the most elite warriors in the world as part of SEAL Team SIX. His story is truly inspirational. One of the best parts about this book was that it gave a view of the human-side of SEALs. Everyone talks about SEALs' skills and accomplishments, but very few delve into the fact these men are in some ways your average Joe so to speak. They are fathers who play with their kids and husbands with a never-ending honey-do list, etc. This perspective is needed in this day and age where KIA statistics run along the bottom of the newscast ticker with little notice to just another number. The men and women in our military who have given their lives for this country are not just a number, another statistic. They were living, breathing human beings who were going about their lives until they met their fate and shattered the lives of their loved ones. I do offer a word of caution though: this book touches extensively on Brown and his family's Christian faith. While there were some statements I took personal exception to, it wasn't as off-putting in this book as some others I've read. To conclude, I recommend this book for all. Adam Brown's story is one that deserves to be told and remembered. ...moreSep 22, 2012

I wish I could give this book more stars. For every praying parent of a prodigal son, this story of the part Christ and family played in the life of a drug addicted young man who overcame his addictions to become a premiere American hero is a story of hope and encouragement.

I asked a newly minted Navy Seal what's the one SEAL book that he would recommend and Fearless did not disappoint. Very few books have left me a better person for having read it, and Adam Brown's story did that for me. His bravery, spirituality and toughness speaks for itself. Adam Brown's example as a friend, husband and father make this a worthwhile read for anyone.Jul 17, 2012
FEARLESS is typically a book you would find men reading. For some reason, I am drawn to stories of men who have sacrificed their lives or given their service for our country through the military. This is Adam Brown’s life story, from Hot Springs, Arkansas, and it has touched my heart in a million different ways. He was proud to be from the state of Arkansas, which you will see as you read through the book.May 30, 2012
