On this episode of Newt's World, I am really excited because I have read every single one of his novels.

I've read his film reviews for the Washington Post for years.

He is a remarkable author of over 20 novels, including I think the best books ever written about sniping.

He is the retired chief film critic for the Washington Post where he won the 2003 Pulitzer Prize

for Distinguished Criticism. He has also published two collections of film criticism

and a nonfiction work, American Gunfight.

His latest book, Basil's War, a World War II spy thriller is available now

and he has another book targeted coming this January 2022.

I have four years been looking forward to a chance to talk to Stephen Hunter

because he is so clever as so many insights and knows so much that it's just remarkable.

So Stephen, thank you for joining me on Newt's World.

Dude, I'm very glad to be here. I can't tell you what a privilege this is for me.

And speaker of the house or just another fan, it's always great to hear nice things about the

effort I put into the way I spent my life.

Well, that's what I'm really curious about. I mean, you were born in Kansas City, Missouri.

By the way, my dad was a career infantryman in the army and I spent three years at Fort Riley
