Inside War
The True Story of Tony Maisey — From the Jungle to the Jordan.
Tony had mastered the art of hiding the frightened child, behind the mask of a fearless criminal. Years later, exhausted from holding up that same weary disguise, he headed for Peru in pursuit of freedom and truth in sheer desperation.
Stumbling from bar to bar in hope of something, anything, Tony found a connection to take him to meet a shaman the following day. With a bottle of water in hand to a nurse significant hangover Tony boarded the cramped fishing boat.
No amount of hard living could have prepared him for what he would be spiritually subjected to deep in the Amazon Jungle. He had opened himself up to the realms of the demonic through torturous Ayahuasca ceremonies.
When returning to London drenched in fear and darkness, suicide seemed to be the only escape from his vivid evil manifestations.
One night alone and frightened he experienced a vision which promised him a way out. But there was something he needed to do first before it could happen.
Part war reportage, part spiritual memoir, Inside War follows Tony from the jungles of his earliest missions to the banks of the Jordan, through the places most people only see on the news. Readers have called it "unflinchingly honest" and "the rare missionary story that doesn't try to tie things up too neatly."
This is that true story.

Amazing miracle story
What a honest and great story of the author’s life. God does miracles and has the power to change people and situations. The spirit realm is very real, which is not emphasised in western societies. I really enjoyed and was encouraged reading the book. Recommend it.

Couldn't put it down once started.
An intriguing and amazing story of how a man's life was totally transformed from the depths of despair to peace.

Excellent.
Fantastically written testimony. Found it very difficult to put this book down. Compelling story of how the author found himself at a major crossroads in his life and how he dealt with the demons he had to battle on his journey. Reccomend to anyone struggling to find inner peace.

A great insight into Tony's journey.
I got the audiobook and listened it in one day! The life Tony Maisey, from then to now, is an incredible show of the power of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our heavenly Father is using Tony massively. A great man of God who has helped me so much 🙏🏼

Such a wonderful testimony.
This is a very well written book. It is a gripping testimonial which shows that no matter how far you go into the world of spiritual darkness and a myriad of addictions, there is power in the name of Jesus to completely heal you without you having to jump through hoops. I admire the author's honesty and openess about his experience and I highly recommend this book.

Brilliant true story.
Loved this book. I am a slow reader but could not put this down and was reading to the early morning hours. It is a true , brutally honest and engaging story about the life of Tony Maisy and the transformation from a demon possessed , drug dealing , knife wielding , violent London gangster to a new life , completely set free. I can see this book being made into a Hollywood movie. It has all the elements to be a blockbuster. Read this book, it will change the way you think about a lot of things.
