Atcho fights fiercely against the daunting reality that he is the factor that could trigger nuclear war.
"Splendid! A real page-turner. Ya' done good, Bubba." NYT Best Selling Author Joe Galloway, co-author of "We Were Soldier's Once,"
"Riveting. Couldn't put it down." Lieutenant-General Ricky Lynch (Retired), former Commanding General, 3rd Infantry Division during the Surge in Iraq."
Atcho is at his best when he's being Atcho --taking names and kicking ass. Highly enjoyable when in all-out-action mode..." **Kirkus Reviews **
"Lee Jackson writes in the style of the early and notable Robert Ludlum or Ken Follett. The story is action-packed, riveting, adrenaline-pumping reading that is sure to make this a best-seller. The moon can be friend or enemy and Atcho clearly knows the difference! Superb historical thriller!" **Crystal Book Reviews **
Curse the Moon has it all, packaging its tense thriller in the cloak of understanding motivations both political and personal. It's all about danger, sacrifice, and how even would-be romance bows to the pressure of a covert operator's obligations. In the end the personal moves into political realms and comes full-circle to promise Atcho a life he could barely have imagined at the novel's beginning. The warrior's façade may soften, but can it transform to something more than constant struggle and fighting? **D. Donovan, eBook Reviewer, Midwest Book Review **
