"A supernatural novel that is not what it seems"
In 1947, Travis Winter was on a covert operation in
East Berlin when his captain shot him in cold blood. As he
lay dying, a hand reached up from within the ground and
pulled Travis though the layers of the earth until he
reached Hell. The devil using the name Navarro insists
they must talk, but before they chat angels arrive freeing
Travis. For the next half a century, Travis has been the SPIRIT
OF INDEPENDENCE in God's Army. He serves as a modern day
angel waiting to fight on the front lines when the Day of
Reckoning arrives. However his five decades of angelic
living makes Travis question God's ruthlessness so he joins
Navarro's minion as the cold war between Heaven and Hell
has heated up to what seems like the final solution. Anyone who enjoys the "Left behind" novels will gain
immense pleasure from SPIRIT OF INDEPENDENCE, the first
tale of the "Spirit Chronicles" series. Kith Rommel
visualizes images so that even an atheist will believe in
Heaven and Hell. Travis is one heck of a lead protagonist,
as he seems so human even in the afterlife that he is a
sort of modern day doubting everyman. Keith Rommel
displays his talent with this powerful inspirational
fiction. Harriet Klausner
