READ MORE ABOUT BLACK SERPENT
|
Black Serpent - February 2005
"Black Serpent" is set in Northern California, and opens with a scene showing
blood-thirsty pirates taking over a fortune in gold that's being transported by
coastwise schooner (from mines farther up the coast) to San Francisco. The bad
guys are renegade Indians, Russians, Mexicanos and whites (all true), members of
a bloodthirsty and terror- instilling group called Sociedad Serpientes.
Jump to 2005, and a Learjet en route to Cairo. The crew detours to try to save
three Americans trapped in a dry lakebed in Chad. (Flying adventure scenes).
These bad guys are Hizballah (aka Hezbollah, Party of God, Islamic Jihad),
"martyrs like a swarm of bees" who are being smuggled into America by the
Sociedad.
The primary good guy is, as usual, Link Anderson -- whose two closest friends
are kidnapped by the Serpientes in a chemical attack on the Weyland Foundation.
Tom Wilson is a brilliant storyteller.

Black Sky - 2003
Teeming with helicopters, brutish thugs and tomahawk-waving Indians, this
thriller takes readers on a gripping, and rather gruesome, journey through the
Northwoods of Michigan and Wisconsin. When Spirit Lake reservation tribal leader
Senator Eddie "Little Turtle" Adcock turns up dead, rumors surface that the
revered deceased may have stolen Indian artifacts. Officials from the Weyland
Foundation, an organization dedicated to making the world a better place,
believe the accusations are bunk, so they dispatch agent Link Anderson, a
half-Blackfoot Indian. Soon after Link arrives at Spirit Lake, he learns of the
Chicago crooks who have overrun the reservation and who terrorize the local
people, and he realizes that the only way to clear Eddie's name is to bring down
the mob. Tribal council member Jenifer Toussaint joins him in his quest and,
eventually, a band of Manido-Ojibwe warriors makes a stand as well. Wilson
writes with authority, and his theme of Native-American exploitation echoes
throughout.
Wilson joins the top ranks of military novelists.

READ MORE ABOUT LUCKY'S BRIDGE

Lucky's Bridge
The 354th Tactical Fighter Squadron is back in action. (We met it in Wilson's
Termite Hill [1991].) The mission is to destroy bridges in and around Hanoi,
which sounds simple enough. But--tipped off by an American mole--the North
Vietnamese know the U.S. targets in advance. U.S. pilots are hindered greatly:
Many SAM sites, air bases, and other strategic targets are in off-limits areas,
and lots of bombs are needed to take out a single bridge.
Outstanding book on the Vietnam Air War! This book is out of print, but worth
hunting down in the used book stores. Second book in a series of three. I
recommend reading Termite Hill first. All three books in series are hard to put
down. Tom Wilson makes you feel like you are a part of squadron.
