Blasted by Adversity: The Making of a Wounded Warrior is by far the best account of one warrior’s trip to hell and back… This book should be a part of every veteran’s transition back to life.

Murphy’s message is one of inspiration; he’s continued to live a full life since recovering from his injuries.

Florida State University features Blasted by Adversity authors Luke Murphy and Julie Strauss Bettinger.

Blasted by Adversity received a Gold award at the the Florida Authors & Publishers Association’s “President’s Award” in the Autobiography & Memoir category.

Retired Army Staff Sgt. Luke Murphy says he sometimes thinks nonveterans and nonfamily members 'don't give a damn' about military sacrifice on Memorial Day.

Wounded Warrior Luke Murphy speaks to Quincy, Illinois' Rotary Club.

Murphy has not let the adversity hold him back. He has completed marathons with a hand cycle, climbed mountains and skied black diamonds slopes. He even co-authored Blasted by Adversity, The Making of a Wounded Warrior about his experiences.

An excerpt from Blasted by Adversity on Military Experience & The Arts.

Luke writes with such refreshing openness, it’s as if he's telling you his remarkable story over a few beers. If you need a shot of inspiration, fortify yourself with this book.

Luke, with humor, passion, and humility, tells of returning from combat to fight a different battle—the battle wounded soldiers fight to get back to a new normal, physically and mentally.
