🎧 Upcoming Audiobook Release: Venom and Valor – A Gripping Tale of Survival, Service, and Strength

We’re thrilled to announce the upcoming release of the audiobook edition of Venom and Valor: A White House Physician Assistant’s Battle for Survival in the Amazon by James J. Jones, PhD, PA-C. This powerful memoir, already resonating deeply with readers, will soon come alive through immersive narration—allowing you to experience every heart-pounding moment, reflection, and hard-won triumph with your ears.

🔊 About the Book:

 

Venom and Valor follows the harrowing real-life journey of a dedicated military physician assistant whose life takes an unexpected turn during an expedition deep in the Amazon. A venomous snakebite nearly claims his life—but what follows is far more than just a physical fight for survival.

This is a story of inner resilience, faith, and transformation. As Dr. Jones battles sepsis and pain in the jungle, he also confronts the mental and spiritual aftermath of trauma. From leading elite military medical teams to facing mortality alone in the rainforest, his path is as inspirational as it is raw and honest.

📚 Why the Audiobook Matters:

 

The audiobook brings a deeper dimension to this story of courage. Told in the voice of someone who has lived the dual realities of battlefield medicine and personal vulnerability, Venom and Valor is more than a memoir—it's a call to reflect on leadership, purpose, and the human will to overcome adversity.

Listeners will be transported from the dense Amazon jungle to the halls of the White House, from moments of deep reflection to decisive action, all through compelling storytelling and sound design that matches the gravity and grace of the narrative.
