VJ Books Presents Author Jack Carr!
Jack Carr is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the critically acclaimed Terminal List political thriller series and a former Navy SEAL who led special operations teams as a Team Leader, Platoon Commander, Troop Commander and Task Unit Commander.
Carr knew from an early age that he would both serve his country and write books like the ones he read so voraciously in his youth. Speaking with
Modern Signed Books podcast host Roger Nichols, Carr reflects on how he enjoyed getting to get to know a character and knew he would one day write books like the ones he enjoyed reading by such authors as David Morrell, Tom Clancy, Nelson DeMille, and J.C. Pollock. You can listen to the entire podcast episode here.
Over his 20 years in Naval Special Warfare he transitioned from an enlisted SEAL sniper specializing in communications and intelligence, to a junior officer leading assault and sniper teams in Iraq and Afghanistan, to a platoon commander practicing counterinsurgency in the southern Philippines, to commanding a Special Operations Task Unit in the most Iranian influenced section of southern Iraq throughout the tumultuous drawdown of U.S. Forces. Carr applies his experiences and emotions from real-world combat to bring unprecedented levels of authenticity to his narratives.
Carr retired from active duty in 2016. He lives with his wife and three children in Park City, Utah.
Carr is the author of the critically acclaimed Terminal List series. In Volume six of the series, Only the Dead, Navy SEAL James Reece faces a devastating global conspiracy in this high-adrenaline thriller that is ripped from the headlines—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author and “one of the top writers of political thrillers” (Bookreporter).
