Code of Honor

Title: Code of Honor
Author: Harold Coyle
Publisher: Pocket Books, a division of Simon and Schuster, Inc
Copyright: 1994
ISBN: 0-671-51029-0


I recommend this book

Code of Honor is a morality play exploring the implications of one man, a politically promoted general, who puts himself outside the code of honor and ethics of the professional American military officer.

Major General Lane commands a US Army division deployed in Columbia to assist the government in its fight against the FARC insurgency. General Lane enforces an extreme version of loyalty and professional ethics on his officers but ignores ethics and professional conduct as they apply to him.

The result is confusion, unnecessary death, defeat, and dishonor.

Trilogy – Kushiel’s Scion, Kushiel’s Justice, and Kushiel’s Mercy

Title: Kushiel’s Scion
Author: Jacqueline Carey
Publisher: Hachette Book Group USA
Copyright: 2006
ISBN-13: 978-0-446-61002-5
Kushiel's Scion (Kushiel's Legacy)

I highly recommend these three novels.

Kushiel’s Scion and the two follow-on volumes of the trilogy continue the story of the alternate universe containing the land of Terre d’Ange. Phèdre and Joscelin’s foster son has come of age and displaces them as the principle character of this trilogy.

Loved by Phèdre and Joscelin and, because of his traitorous biological mother, despised and feared by many, Imriel de la Courcel carves a place in the world for himself. The obstacles he faces are many and dangerous; a secret spy network, his still traitorous mother, the fear of his mother at the Court of Terre d’Ange, and powerful magic.

He wins through with wit, courage, swordsmanship learned from Joscelin, and love.

The second and third volumes of the trilogy are:
