Spitzer Zahn by Randall Jarmon is about the resistance against people who want to see America fall and never be able to get up. When two former missionaries set up a radio station on an abandoned ski slope, they hoped they could bring faith and God back into the lives of the people of America. They had big dreams, but the dreams were destroyed by a terrorist attack. But the missionaries did not give up; they set up their system once again, this time broadcasting from an island. However, they had no idea that their little island would become vital to America’s survival. The terrorists know that to destroy America, they simply have to keep people on the wrong moral path and they will automatically destroy their country. With an adversary so strong, what can two missionaries do? Luckily for them, a man just as deadly as the enemy is on their side and he is far more skilled than anyone knows.

Randall Jarmon is finally one of my favorite novelists of all time. He has the ability to write a great mystery/suspense that keeps you on the edge of your seat and makes sure that you don’t put the novel down until you have read it till the end. What I really like about Jarmon is that he writes Christian fiction in such a way that it is entertaining for everyone, even for readers who are not religious. This novel is spot on when it comes to storyline and plot. You will not be able to guess what happens next. The flow of the novel is perfect and very, very entertaining. This is sure to be another hit for Jarmon, whose way of writing is almost magical.

With a cast of compelling characters with incredibly solid backgrounds, Spitzer Zahn by Randall Jarmon is a story featuring two former missionaries whose mission to create a radio station, “We Honor God’s Truth,” is hampered by every form of obstacle, including arson, terrorist activities, and natural calamities. Surrounded by all kinds of enemies, will they succeed in restoring the link between the American people and their Christian values? There is only one person with formidable skills who can help them realize this dream, and it will be breathtaking to watch this character in action.

This is a very inspirational Christian fiction, a narrative that powerfully inspires faith and after readers have turned over the last page, they will be convinced that faith can really move mountains and that help does come from places they hardly know and at times they least expect it. The writing is crisp and flawless, enticingly beautiful, with dialogue that propels the plot forward. From characters like the Reaper, the Valkyrie, Coral, Amos Kirk, to Darla Humphrey, readers will find all kinds of entertainment as they experience a diverse stream of emotions watching them in action. The plot moves fast with short, tight chapters that make readers want to see what happens in the next chapter, a style that thriller fans will absolutely enjoy.

Spitzer Zahn is a highly entertaining work of fiction that reads so realistically and prompts readers to ask important questions about faith and life. I loved every aspect of the work, especially the characters. The author was able to hook me from the start and to keep me reading to the very end. I loved the writing and Jarmon doesn't slow the pace with unnecessary explanations. I hope this book finds a comfortable home on many readers' bookshelves. Jarmon comes across as a master storyteller, weaving together powerful prose elements to create work that readers will love.

A group of former missionaries is using a radio station to try to evangelize New England, but their efforts might be thwarted by a powerful and wealthy group determined to ruin all that's left of America. By depriving the country of the principles of Christian faith, America's very core is shaken. At a time when a common faith would be helpful, everything seems to be falling apart. Will our country be able to come together for the common good? Only time and Spitzer Zahn will tell.
