He is hired by the FBI to join a special task force, and alongside his colleagues, battles trained mercenaries from all corners of the world. But as Logan embarks on this journey, he must also confront the trauma from his time as a Marine in Fallujah, which puts everything he holds dear at risk.

    I seemed to have missed something in this series. In the prologue of Field of Valor, Logan and John are being chased by the secret service, Sarah calls to Logan to say she is pregnant. How do they escape the situation and what book is it in.

    I read the first book over watch that I had acquired for free, it was the first of that type of book for me. I loved the book, it seemed like it could have been taken from today’s happenings. I immediately ordered the other three books of the series which I am about to start reading. TBD

    I was given the paperback book, Oath of Honor. This is the first book that I have read authored by Matthew Begley. I am 75 and have read many books over the years. This book surpasses all that I have ever read. I could not put it down. I am A Navy Veteran from the sixties and live in New Jersey. I look forward to purchasing his other books and would love to meet him. Perhaps someday he will have A book signing. Thank you Matthew for your service and patriotism to our country. With respect and blessings. Bob Radmore Senior

    No discussion wanted. Just a message expressing admiration, and thanks.

    These books are, simply put, outstanding. Vince Flynn was just as stunning, and I am so glad you have moved seamlessly into that void. I absorb the lives and sacrifices of the men you write about, because I have, in the past, before 2017, felt despair at what was, and is-happening to threaten this world. (Our country’s representative, who has never run anything, was bowing before tyrants, apologising for the United States of America, for God’s sake.)

    So many sick, ideological, brain-frozen humans are doing so many unspeakable things to other humans, that I could barely function. You write of our military men and women, whom I honor with all my heart, and I am the stronger for their efforts to keep the world upright. I know they’re out there, hunting down too many psychopaths willing to commit any atrocity for power.

    I used to think religion would lead to the death of this planet. I now think Ideology is the worse poison. It includes religion, of course, but goes beyond, to encompass the political system, as well. Indoctrination of our youth begins in the first grade. I speak from bitter experience.

    Thank you, Sir. I offer my deepest respect and appreciation for your service, and now for your message- that our forces are a FORCE to be reckoned with.
    I eagerly await your third book. What a talent!
