    About this audiobook

    Suddenly shot at a picnic, Tox discovers it's a strange invitation to join an old sniper pal's quest for revenge over his fallen team. Despite the injury, Tox feels sympathetic to the cause--and battles a growing darkness within himself. But when he learns Alec is using a deadly ancient artifact in his plan, Tox must fight the monster without becoming one. "Kendig has out done herself."--RT Book Reviews on Conspiracy of Silence Six months after stopping a deadly plague, Cole "Tox" Russell and his team are enjoying a little rest. That peace is short-lived when a sniper shot hits Tox. The enemy is discovered to be one of their own, a rogue Special Forces team operator. Alec King is perhaps the only person as skilled as Tox, and he's out for justice. Furious with orders that got his men killed, he intends to make those responsible pay. And he insists Tox join him, believing they are the same breed of soldier. Afraid his old friend is right, Tox battles a growing darkness within himself as he and his team engage in another deadly encounter with antiquity. It appears Alec is cheating--he's using a mysterious artifact, a crown that history has linked to some of the worst slaughters in humanity. Racing to stop Alec before his vengeance is unleashed, Tox must fight the monster without becoming one.

      Action-packed from page one!! This novel picks up with Tox and his team a few months after the events in Conspiracy of Silence. Their time to rest comes quickly to an end when Tox is shot by a sniper. What is discovered is that shot was a message to Tox from Alec King, another Special Forces operator, that has gone rogue. This operator is on a mission of vengeance and Tox and team are tasked with tracking him down and stopping him!As readers have come to expect in a Ronie Kendig novel, what begins is an adventure full of military action, Biblical history, mysterious artifacts, just the right amount of romance, and more. It is apparent that Ms. Kendig has done extensive research for this series. As a wife of a retired Marine, I appreciate how well she portrays Tox's internal struggles as well. In Crown of Souls, readers get a glimpse into the battles Tox fights in his mind because of the missions he has been involved in the past and the guilt that he feels from the things he has been asked to do. Tox is going after what others are calling a madman, but Tox sees a lot of Alec King in himself.Although you could read this as a standalone novel, I would recommend reading Conspiracy of Silence first if you haven't already since this novel picks up where that one left off.I was given a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

      Title: Crown of Souls (The Tox Files #2)Author: Ronie KendigPages: 480Year: 2017Publisher: BethanyHouseMy rating is 5 out of 5 stars.Cole Russell commands a secret Special Forces unit that currently is on leave when Cole is shot by a sniper bullet. There is something unique about the bullet that leads to a familiar shooter. Cole and his unit are then hot on the trail of one of their own. Cole seems to be two steps behind his former friend, Alec King, and the bodies and violence are escalating. They discover that as Alec seems to be wearing an ancient crown, he becomes more and more deranged as well as more powerful. He wants Cole to joint his fight as he insists they are the same type of soldier. Cole recognizes feeling some of the same things Alec does and thinks about joining up with him. His girlfriend and deception expert, Haven, has other ideas and continues telling Cole what a different man he is than Alec. Cole still battles feeling guilty and unworthy of Haven’s love and respect. Can he save others from Alec’s evil climactic event as well as himself or will he live up to his nickname and prove toxic? Wow! What a riveting story that captivated me from cover to cover. I love these types of stories that combine elements of danger, adventure, mystery, romance, faith, archeology and history. I also like the military aspect of the story where readers see soldiers willing to give the ultimate sacrifice of their lives to serve and protect our freedom and our country. Thank you to those who have in the past or are currently serving in the military! The writing is top notch and will draw readers in from page one. The search for truth and justice is one many can relate to and get involved with; I know I sure did and loved it! There were some questions left unanswered at the end of the story, so I’m anxiously awaiting book three in the series. Thank you, Ronie, for another great adventure!Disclosure of Material Connection: I received one or more of the products or services mentioned above for free in the hope that I would mention it on my blog.
