For years the United States has been the World's police force, and the leading nation behind the war on terror, deploying its forces around the globe in the pursuit of peace.
But when the Speaker of the National Assembly of South Korea is abducted while on a diplomatic mission to Vietnam by North Korean Forces operating within the country it plunges the North and the South on a path to war that forces the United States to once again deploy its forces in aide of a fellow Ally. With forces already deployed to the Middle East and around the globe in the War on Terror, it must once again weigh the options of becoming embroiled in yet another conflict.
However, when American Special Forces sent in to rescue the Speaker uncover a plot that rivals any threat currently being dealt with, the United States is forced to reevaluate the crisis it now faces.
With more and more American Forces being deployed to the region to hopefully avert a costly and devastating war, the CIA races against the clock to find out who, what, when and how is behind the plot to assassinate the American President on his own soil.
Whether the United States can avert a global disaster while preventing the attempt on their President's life is yet to be seen, but no matter what happens they will be Baptized by Fire.

The Hero's Guide to Heroing
A story about superheroes in a modern world. Once, humans and power wielders were at war. The war brought both side to the brink of destruction, forcing peace or extinction. A tentative peace prevailed for a time. Enough to build trust between the two sides for many years. But as the two sides grew together some of the old hatreds began to stir again. Those who held these old hatreds became known as villains, while those who fought them became known as heroes. "Are you sure this will work?" one of the figures around the table ask. All are dressed in black and hide their faces. No one wants to be known to anyone else in 'this' type of alliance. "I'm certain of it. We need to simply kill the few true heroes left, and then expose the rest for the self righteous corrupt creatures they are. I've already started gathering the pieces I need." "What's the end goal here?" a third figure asks. "To purge the world of corruption and all those who turn a blind eye to it." There is a long silence before a fourth voice speaks out. "Your talking about mass slaughter. I won't be a part of this." the figure stands and begins to leave the table. "It seems there is corruption in our very own ranks.... I suppose the best place to start is within the inner vessel, is it not?" "No! What are you Doing? Stop!"

Everywhere it goes, death follows taking people and turning them into monsters; creatures hungry for flesh. Many groups have lived through it though, two of them in a life long war called The Alternators and The Ambassadors. Once family, now torn apart from a crime committed in the beginning of what is now called hell. The Ambassadors stand as the cannibals of the world while The Alternators stand as the savors and pre-war soldiers of the world. The four ranks; Guard, Blade, Archer, and Sniper have kept themselves together for fourteen years and plan on keeping it that way. Though will the war tear them apart, destroy them all, or become a victory with a celebration of now end? Theme songs: Twisted by: MISSIO Come Back Home by: BTS Hall of Fame: The Script Louder Than Bombs by: BTS (this is on of the ending songs because it fits so perfectly) On by: BTS (the VERY VERY last song at the end of the book) Author's Message: I know they are two songs but at some point I plan on doing a remix with both. They both go really well with the story line. "Twisted" is pointed mainly towards the beginning of this book but as it gets to the end, "Come Back Home" becomes pointed mainly. At the very end, "Hall of Fame" is main point. No spoilers on what'll happen. You'll just have to read to find out.Complete

The First OTHER World War (NWY2)
On one New Year's Eve, the moment the International Date Line welcomed the new year first, the change occurred. Communications between nations were severed, climates shifted, and unknown lands emerged. Eventually, as each country gathered information and realized they had somehow been transported to another world, their reactions varied. America: "FUCK YEAH! Frontier time, baby!" Russia: "FUCK YEAH! It's warmer now, and the vodka tastes even better!" China: "FUCK YEAH! Not sure what's going on, but there's a ton of stuff that looks edible!" Japan: "Must go to work." ...Or so one might expect, but in reality, each country moved forward with its own agenda, heading straight toward a clash of civilizations.
