In the 1980's a young Englishman enlists in the brutal Spanish Foreign Legion looking for adventure, what he finds is quite extraordinary. Sometimes a life story is recounted that leaves you amazed at the measures some men will go to in order to find purpose and meaning in their lives. This is one such book. Mark Gee's moving and no holds barred account of his time as a Spanish Foreign Legion Mercenary and 'Bridegroom of Death', and also his time served in 'Peloton', their phenomenally vicious penal work section is truly amazing. It is an extraordinary tale of the hardship and brutality that typifies the life of one of the Spanish Army's most harshly disciplined elite troops, and opens up their dark and deeply religious 'Cult of Death' for all to see and understand. This is a deeply heart warming, emotional and moving rendition of one man's desperate search for the truth, and how he found it, in the most unusual of places.
