The journey to find ourselves is not always an easy task. While some people find meaning in family, friends, their careers or their dreams, others find it in service to others. As the great Mahatma Gandhi once said, “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” In author Colonel Don Wilson’s novel Code Name: Spirit, the continuing adventures of a secret military hero unravel.
In this thrilling sequel to the action-packed book Code Name: William Tell, hero Hunter “William” Bowman finds himself tasked with a new assignment. After leading the team that brought down KRAIT, a maniacal KGB agent, Bill finds himself facing the threat of Islamic extremism, a love thought lost returns to him, and the historian continues to tell the tale of William Tell as he evolves as a team leader into Code Name: Spirit.
The novel is just as action-fueled and detail oriented as its predecessor. The book delves even more personally into the life of Bill Bowman specifically, showcasing his growing relationships in the field and with a long-lost love. The book also delves more into the ties that religion have to those who serve in the military, particularly Christianity and the United States Military. This adds a more personal element to those readers who find themselves in the same religious mindset as the protagonist.
Code Name: Spirit is for those who enjoy action and adventure novels with a military realism aspect and engaging characters throughout. I do believe religious readers will be fond of the connections made between the characters and their faith. This leads to more bonding and cohesive organizing between the various team members of the task force, as the team focuses on a new enemy to face.
A brilliant follow up to the author’s first book, Colonel Don Wilson’s novel Code Name: Spirit is a phenomenal sequel which builds upon the characters and plot of the first book in a natural and believable way. The action and story are filled with twists and turns even in the opening chapters of the story and will keep readers hanging on the author’s every word. Be sure to grab your copy today!
