"100 Days" - Military Novel Revisits the Tense Days of the Falklands War

LONDON UK, U.K. - Jan. 7, 2016 - PRLog -- Based on his experiences as a sailor in the Royal Navy, author Steve Carter brings the intense fighting of the Falklands War era alive in his thrilling novel 100 Days.

The story tells what a group of British sailors, a Harrier pilot, and a Parachuteregiment soldier faced in the Falklands. As the operation to retake the islands unfolds, readers will follow the war right alongside those who fought.

The character Chris Carpenter on HMS Fearless is autobiographical. The Fearless suffered five days of air attacks in San Carlos water, also known as “bomb alley.” The HMS Peterborough was attacked as it protected the British landing area, only to later sink in the South Atlantic. The Harrier pilot is shot down in battle and is befriended by a soldier who is later killed right next to him.

Although a novel, 100 Days is essentially an autobiography with a novel written around it, telling the story of the war through the eyes of the brave young men who fought it. Afterward, the characters struggle to reconcile their survival while their comrades died.

About the Author: First-time author Steve Carter served in the Royal Navy from 1977 to 1990, reaching the rank of chief petty officer. He served on four ships, including HMS Devonshire in 1978, HMS Sheffield from 1979 to 1981, HMS Fearless from 1981 to 1983, and HMS Nottingham in 1989. In April 1982, the author was a 22-year-old sailor responsible for the maintenance of the radio and cryptographic equipment in the main communications office of HMS Fearless.

“If you’ve ever wondered what the Falklands War was like, this compelling novel will take you to the center of the action. We are thrilled to announce its release,” said Robert Fletcher, CEO of Strategic Book Publishing and Rights Agency.
