Into the Darkness

A Journey of Love, War, and Emotional Freedom

By: Dave Fielding

Narrated by: Dave Fielding

Into the Darkness is unlike any book you’ve ever listened to. Dave Fielding’s gritty, no-holds-barred memoir is not just a tale of covert operations and daring takedowns of the planet's most notorious terrorists in the hostile terrains of Iraq and Syria. It's a raw, unflinching look at the man behind the mission, whose personal life crumbled even as he fought against the darkness both without and within. Fielding's story is a harrowing journey through the underbelly of mental anguish, where the specter of suicide loomed large, and the battle was not just in surviving the external threats but confronting the demons that whispered from the shadows of his mind.

This book is a testament to the battles fought in silence, the ones that rage fiercer than any faced on the battlefield. The path to redemption you’ll experience in this book is a daily struggle for healing, a fight to find compassion within and the courage to sit with oneself amidst the storm. This book doesn't just tell a story—it implores you to face your own darkness and emerge victorious, one day at a time.

Middle school Drama memoir… not a fan

Far too much drama, not much of a story for first 6 chapters. Relationship book about high maintenance guy and girls

It was the right book at the right time

After listening to a podcast where he was a guest I was hoping to hear more of Dave’s backstory. Growing up, stories from his time in an ODA, etc… so I have to admit that I was a little disappointed. I’m giving this book 5 stars though because there are people that need to hear it. After losing a brother and a dad to suicide I needed to hear it but didn’t realize it. Thank you for your service Dave and thank you for your story.

Can relate

Honest no holds barred story and many can relate , thank you for sharing . You are certainly not alone

into the darkness

I liked the fact tha Davet had the balls to write and read it from the heart. The hardship and recovery is what we all went through. When darkness comes, most don't live to see the light again. I found God and it sounds like God was watching out for him because other wise things stay sideways.

Fantastic listen

Dave's authenticity and humility really come through in this book. It shows that even the toughest people have personal demons they must overcome. The challenges he shares are common for anyone who has deployed, not just for operators. 10/10 recommend
