After serving for thirty years as a naval aviator and now almost two decades as a Navy civilian working at a Navy warfare center where we develop new technologies to help our warfighters, I’ve come to develop a healthy respect for the enormous power of militaries and the technologies they employ.
But I’ve also developed a healthy concern for what military power can do if it falls into the wrong hands and isn’t used for just purposes.
Said a different way, the fiction projects I undertake all examine this issue. I try to do this is creative ways, blending plot, character and action.
In The Coronado Conspiracy I wondered: “What if the United States’ most senior military officers were so dissatisfied with the way the U.S. President was taking the country that they engineered a plot to try to have him impeached? Sound like today’s headlines?
Recently, Rotor Review posted a short review of The Coronado Conspiracy. I believe it sums up the book well. Trust you’ll enjoy it – as well as the book.
