Description
The Chords of War is the tale of punk rock teenager Max Rivera from Florida, who seeks purpose as he tries to understand why his life always teeters between music and mayhem. After he's kicked out of his band on tour, he joins the Army to change his life. It's after 9/11, and he finds himself under fire in Iraq, part of the surge in Baquabah. In order to deal with his teen angst and raging hormones among daily patrols, coordinated battles, and women fighting alongside him, Max creates a new band with soldiers. Will Max and his friends make it?

Advance Praise
“The Chords of War is a compelling read that paints those who fought in Iraq as real, honest people, rather than the clichéd versions we’re often given. It’s not your usual war-novel, and that’s good--that’s why it should be read.”
– Michael Anthony, U.S. Army, Author of Mass Casualties, and Civilianized: A Young Veteran’s Memoir
"The Chords of War breaks clean of Vietnam and World War II war-writing traditions by incisively portraying the war experience of millennial-era men and women agonizingly stalled between adolescence and adulthood."
--Professor and Lt. Col. Peter Molin, U.S. Army, Rutgers University
