Live Fire with Chuck Holton

If you’ve ever wanted to see Chuck get his – here’s your chance. But don’ t let the fact that I get completely owned by a Ranger instructor while doing a story about Ranger school distract you from the real message of the piece.

Sergeant Mike Belew fell away from his faith after joining the army. But Ranger school brought him face to face with how vital his faith could be.

The places we visited included Baghdad, Tikrit, Samarra, and Baquba. The military posts we visited included FOBs Danger, Brassfield-Mora, Victory, Striker, and Warhorse, as well as PBs Razor and Uvani in the city of Samarra.

We’ve just been given the final cover image of my next book, Task Force Valor – Allah’s Fire. Gayle Roper and I co-wrote this first of a three-book fiction series about a special forces EOD team (that’s the bomb squad, folks) that is tasked with hunting down bomb factories and suppliers. It’s a high-action thriller that will totally knock your socks off! Now that book one has gone to the printers, I’m getting started on book 2. (No title yet.)

Book one, Allah’s Fire, is set in Lebanon, where our team must hunt down the terrorists responsible for a hotel bombing which was accomplished through the use of a new type of explosive that threatens to wreak havoc on global security. The lead female character also must face her own fears to save her sister.

The release date for Allah’s fire is April, 2006.
