Through the Red Glass

"Through the Red Glass by S. P. Rowe is what happens when war fiction stumbles straight into hell… and the door locks behind you."

"This isn’t just another military thriller. It’s war rot, psychological collapse, and pure dread stitched together with blood and gunpowder."

"The tension is relentless like Aliens meets Jacob’s Ladder meets a war-zone nightmare you can’t wake up from."

They came for war. They found something worse.

1972. On the edge of the Laos border, a long-range reconnaissance team is dispatched into the jungle to evaluate prototype night vision goggles. Expecting only enemy fire and the familiar hazards of war, the soldiers soon realize the red-tinted 'night vision' goggles reveal more than anyone intended.

Each step into the jungle blurs the line between mission and nightmare. The deeper they go, the less certain they are of what waits in the dark—or of themselves.

Through the Red Glass combines the grit of Vietnam War fiction with the unsettling atmosphere of supernatural horror. A taut, immersive novella, it invites readers to peer into a war fought not only on the battlefield, but in the darkness of the soul.
