Operation Firebrand: Crusade

I just finished reading a book I came across at my local bookstore. Operation Firebrand: Crusade is written by Jefferson Scott. I was skeptical in the beginning because it felt like my own writing (and I’m an amateur) however as I really dug into the book I found myself not wanting to set it down. A group of Christians are assembled for their second mission (this is the second book in the series of three). They head for the Sudan in an effort to help a local tribe in the south recover some of their families who were captured by Muslim raiders. Two of the members of the team have to face some harsh realities and deal with them in positive and negative ways. The book has some graphic parts, but the author gives a warning and explanation in the first few pages as to why he felt the descriptions were necessary. Unfortunately this book is going to be out of print soon…but Amazon.com has several copies, probably for cheaper than the retail price. I think this book is worth the read!
