"Legacy of the General," the fourth installment in T.W. Anderson's "A Reluctant White Knight" series, pulls the hero, Tom Rowter, and his wife, Sunny, into a complicated conflict between powerful forces and launches them on a hazardous mission to fulfill the last wish of an admired friend (i.e., the General).
Some time ago, when reviewing the first volume in T.W. Anderson's "A Reluctant White Knight" series, we had this to say: "It combines the best ingredients of the "Texas Rangers" genre fiction, but with highly contemporary suspense, which is further enriched with themes of green energy, aviation and technology. The lead character, Tom Rowter, is a solid anti-hero, a toned-down version of Clint Eastwood at his best. He tells the story in the first person, matter of fact, no hype or showoff (well, maybe a reserved touch of bravado...). He's cool, aggressive (or even deadly, when necessary), and delivers it all with humor. He clearly has a big heart, which carries a good chunk of pain and guilt, and he can handle a gun. In other words, he's a good character, someone you would definitely want to spend more time with, literarily speaking."
With the fourth novel in the series, Mr. Anderson maintains the remarkable qualities of his creation, while fleshing out the main characters, expanding the family circle, and revealing new aspects of this evolving saga.
"Legacy of the General" picks up a short time after the events of "Seascape's Aground!" (Vol. 3). The story begins with a few scenes that give the readereven a new readera sure footing in what's happening in the lives of Tom and Sunny. Meanwhile, a mysterious outfit gears up to take violent action in order to pilfer possession of 'an item," which happened to be on its way to Tom posthaste, courtesy of his now-deceased friend. Soon, the suspense rises and bad things start to happen.
Mixing in the successful ingredients that made the previous volumes so enjoyable, the author adds in legal wrangling, government conspiracies, IRS and CIA shenanigans, a former U.S. president, and a good measure of sprightly romance and lively action. As before, Tom Rowter, with the conflicted yet incredibly gutsy Sunny, is determined to do the right thing, come hell or high wateror such other bad things as one might expect, either on the ground or in the air.
In summary, "Legacy of the General" fulfills the promise of the series, delivering an authentic setting and great action with a lively cast of flesh-and-blood characters, engaged in real-world relationships and embroiled in a risky crisis that gets resolved through the hero's courage, integrity, and thrilling exploits. The ending, when it comes, is surprising and satisfying. Highly recommended!
