He finds four perfect candidates: Four-eyes, Shades, Bullrider, and Yankee. These four young men wake to know something is different about them, but theyre not sure what. On a practice mission, their helicopter is shot down and crashes in the jungle. Somehow, the soldiers survive and eventually find their way back to Dr. Blackteas hospital only to find it destroyed. Theyre in need of answers, and their answers wait at Camp Eagle. Led by Four-eyes, the men trek through the jungle as an unsatisfied hunger for human blood threatens their sanity. The four super soldiers soon realize they must make a wartime choice: Samson versus Gunner. Samson hopes to become the next dictator of Vietnam with the help of Four-eyes and his men.

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “As sweet and funny and sad and true and heartfelt a memoir as one could find.” —from the foreword by Augusten Burroughs Ever since he was young, John Robison longed to connect with other people, but by the time he was a teenager, his odd habits—an inclination to blurt out non sequiturs, avoid eye contact, dismantle radios, and dig five-foot holes (and stick his younger brother, Augusten Burroughs, in them)—had earned him the label “social deviant.” It was not until he was forty that he was diagnosed with a form of autism called Asperger’s syndrome. That understanding transformed the way he saw himself—and the world. A born storyteller, Robison has written a moving, darkly funny memoir about a life that has taken him from developing exploding guitars for KISS to building a family of his own. It’s a strange, sly, indelible account—sometimes alien yet always deeply human.
