I just spoke with the authors of the Seventh Psalm and will be talking with them about the book on Blogtalk Radio next week on my Sunday show.

They have a very interesting story to tell - regarding their own background with military families, and military careers of their own…writing this fictional tale on the war on terror, only to discover that -even though it’s fictional - it depicts our young military men and women as heroes - and in liberal land you can’t have a hero in uniform…!

I can’t wait to get these guys in the air next week!

Who needs Tom Clancy?, March 3, 2008
By Joseph W. Zima (Topeka, Kansas United States)

Jonathan Bruce has done for the “War on Terrorism” what Tom Clancy did for the “Cold War” - chronicle our military’s hi-tech efforts to keep us safe, but not at the expense of interesting human characters. Even at 585 pages, it’s a quick “read”. The authors’ military careers have obviously informed their writing - it is specific without resorting to alot of techno-babble! I eagerly await a sequel to further the adventures of Maj. Colin Blackford.

By J. W. Page (Albuquerque, NM USA)

Here is a novel that could easily be more truth than fiction. Do you know people who think we should sit down with the radicals in this world and “just try to get along”? Well, this is something for them to read! As a retired Air Force pilot, I found this book to be very well written. It has more twists and turns than a Jack Bauer “24″ series, and you just don’t want to put it down.

Great Story, Realistic, and Well-written., February 14, 2008
By Henry S. Boyars “Northwest Wiz” (Meridian, Idaho)

I picked up this book because it reminded of the W.E.B. Griffith military novels I enjoyed while stationed in England 20 years ago. I was absolutely delighted with this book. Having been an Air Force commander and senior officer, I found the details, situations, and characterizations remarkably accurate. In fact, the characters seemed so similar to some of the people I served with, that they must have been drawn from the authors’ own experiences. Although not without flaws(there’s a missing hyphen on page 258), the writing is much better than many popular books of this genre. Although I am a hypercritical reader who is easily distracted, Seventh Psalm kept my interest to the last page and left me hoping for a sequel.
