From the Author

FIRESTORM is dedicated to the men and women who have served in the U.S. armed forces and, as such, has a strong military flavor to the action. Many of the members of Firebombers Incorporated are veterans or reservists representing all branches of the U.S. military, something which proves to be decisive as the story progresses.

This review is from: Firestorm (Paperback)

I read this book in the ninth grade and it was great.Most of the time when you read a sequel its never as good as the original, but this one had everything FI had and more! The action and suspense in this book, added to the original realistic storyline make it a great book.Joe talon, in a desperate attempt to save FI, takes them too south america where they are taken hostage. There Joe meets an old Friend....See how it turns out!!!

Book two is out from The Fire Bombers series by Mike Archer.
Exciting, great read with action and a twist to the series.
This book takes you and FireBombers Inc overseas. Hostile people have captured and surround some of the FireBombers crew. The book takes on a military theme, and results with a interesting rescue plan.
Action packed, a thriller and a easy read.
I cant wait for more from Mr.Archer, which is forth coming soon!
I also want too note that Mr. Archer does respond to calls and emails, and invites people to do such.
Note that half of the sales of his books go to Fire Fighter charitys, helping out familys of lost loved ones.
That in it self makes his books a MUST buy.
Thanks,

5.0 out of 5 stars Story of courage, perseverance and tenacity for all!, July 27, 2006

This review is from: Firestorm (Paperback)

"Firestorm" written by Michael Archer is an amazingly well-written book. I thoroughly enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. I learned a great deal about high-tech firefighting. This has allowed me to understand much about what is involved in putting out the fires on going on now on the west coast of the U.S. This book is an action-filled, high-drama, exciting story of human nature and physical nature, their colliding and their coalescing.

A group of firefighters, working for a company trying to stave off bankruptcy go to Central America to fight fires during the off-season for U.S. fires. While there, they are trapped in the jungle, cut off by guerillas and, not being able to depend on the locals to help them out of the difficult situation, they have to rescue their own people and fight their way out. What ensues is a powerful story of courage, perseverance and tenacity.

..."She glanced sidelong at Hannah, then focused back on John as she continued speaking. Semper fidelis, she thought, remember the Marine Corps creed. `Always faithful'...Bring it ON!..." and that's just what they do.

From one Marine to another, Semper fi! I can't imagine anyone not thoroughly enjoying this novel.
