Benjamin Spada’s The Warmaker is a remarkable action-packed breath-taking narrative that guarantees a concentrated dose of adrenaline shot straight to the heart.
When a US Congressman suddenly combusts into flames in broad daylight, a thread of evidence points at dangerous and sophisticated weaponry working its way into hands of criminals and all sorts of bad guys. With no room for error, the United States employs the Black Spear organization to uncover the sinister forces working in the shadows to destabilize entire nation-states with bleeding-edge killing tools. It’s up to Cole West and his team of hardened operators to avert catastrophe. But before the end, West must answer a haunting question: how many people would he kill to stop a war?
The Warmaker reads like a big-scale cinematic action thriller reminiscent of Matthew Rielly’s action-packed wild rides with exotic weaponry and larger-than-life threats. Benjamin Spada keeps the pedal pressed firmly to the metal with gunfights, hand-to-hand combat, and cool chases. At the same time, Spada emphasizes the focus on character development of the protagonist, Cole West. As he goes through an unenviable and incredible journey in this narrative, one can’t help but wonder how will Spada top this one. However, I’m sure he will because I said the same thing about The Warmaker and it blew past the high expectations that Spada’s debut had set.
Come for the explosive action and stay for the moral quandary that is presented in The Warmaker, a fast-paced imagination of the scary idea of advanced cutting-edge weapons making their way into the hands of folks with agendas to rule the world by first destroying it.
