Arklight: Task Force Crusader is a work of thriller fiction which also focuses on some Christian and science fiction themes, and was penned by author J. M. Myrick. In this enticing thriller, which is suitable for readers who don’t mind some explicit language and mid-level violent scenes, we follow on with the team from previous novels Operation Nightfall and Force Interdiction. This time the enemy is clear: the special operative Magnus O’Keefe, whose interference is only the beginning of a time-spanning interdimensional plot that covers over two thousand years of human history. From the dangerous resurfacing of Nazi regimes to the new pieces of a terrifying weapon, the Spear Team must find the truth at the heart of this sinister plot before it’s too late.

Having read author J. M. Myrick’s work before, I knew I’d be getting some fantastic action scenes, powerful moments of cataclysmic terror and plenty of run for my money in this new Arklight installment. Whilst Myrick delivers all the guts and glory that one would usually expect to find as the Spear Team and the Alsos Team struggle on, this particular plot was an even bigger success than previous tales. For me, the combination of sinister psychological and genocidal plots from the past really upped the ante on the stakes, making every moment more emotionally charged and terrifying to read about. We also have deeper character development than ever, making the heroes more realistic and relatable as their struggles worsen. Overall, Arklight: Task Force Crusader makes another giant leap for science fiction and thriller novels.

Arklight: Task Force Crusader by J. M. Myrick is the third novel in the series where the fight between good and evil comes to a heart-stopping end. The Spear Team is out there trying to find the truth and making sure people are safe from the clutches of evil. They know they cannot save everyone, but they will try their hardest and fight until the end. They are not fighting blindly anymore, they know who they are fighting and they know how they can defeat him. The only issue is they need to get the Spear of Destiny and that is not easy. If they want to win this fight and save the world from an impending end, they need to stand their ground. This is the battle that could save them all ... or it could end it all.

Arklight: Task Force Crusader by J. M. Myrick is a story that needs to be read by anyone who is a fan of action and thriller genres. All the characters are very well-developed, but Ian and John stood out to me the most. They lead the story in their own way and they do the best they can. The author has done a great job of creating a universe that is not only believable but is actually very real. The flow is great, the story progresses wonderfully and you don’t get a moment to put the book down. There are a lot of characters that might intimidate some readers, but don’t let it because each character adds another layer of a complex plot that you will love to unravel. A brilliant novel and perfectly executed!
