About this audiobook
Tu Lam has become known not just for his accomplishments as a decorated Green Beret, but also for his work outside the military, including:
- Training citizens and law enforcement professionals all over the country
- Providing aid to both active and retired soldiers with physical and mental health issues
- Co-hosting the History Channel’s Forged in Fire: Knife or Death
- Appearing in and contributing to the world’s bestselling video game, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
That decision led him to more than two decades of grueling instruction in every facet of the special forces, then deployment to war and conflict zones—all while channeling his inner anger in secret underground no-holds-barred fighting matches. When he finally retired from the military after more than two decades, his demons caught up with him, leading to years of addiction. But even that didn’t defeat him. Confronting his demons, he emerged triumphant. Now he shares the gripping details and riveting intricacies of this awe-inspiring journey.
Tu Lam’s life is, at times, all too real, and at many others times, almost unbelievable. For fans of Jocko Willink and David Goggins, The Way of Rōnin is an ultimately triumphant tale of what one man can accomplish against seemingly insurmountable odds.
