MIAMI, October 24, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Reincarnation is a topic that has fascinated people for millennia. The idea of spirits returning to this world after death and assuming new forms is intriguing indeed. Author Deion Hixon effectively and eloquently combines his interest in the cycle of life with his fascination for American history in his new trilogy "The Eagles of God II" (now available from 1stBooks Library).
Continuing the adventures of the two spiritual entities specified in the first trilogy, "Eagles of God II" begins with the story of Virginia colonists. Join the brave Virginia Colonists as they fight for their freedom against British tyranny. Follow the rag-tag American militia as they engage the British in the South. Bear witness to their success and Cornwallis' surrender at Yorktown.
In the next section, Hixon brings the Civil War to life. See this pivotal domestic conflict through the eyes of two Military Academy roommates -- each fighting on opposite sides of the war. Understand the battles waged in Virginia between Lee and McClellan. Observe the decisive battle of Gettysburg and follow General Grant southward to Richmond and Appomatox.
Finally, Hixon invites readers aboard WWI aircraft. Fly with a Yank in the Canadian Air Corps through the war-torn skies of France. Follow his destiny. Learn of the Sopwith Camel, the German tri-plane and other long gone machines. Perceive how the ferocious ground battles led to German capitulation.
Eagles of God II is an exciting, entertaining, and emotionally-wrought novel, well worth reading.
Although he was born in Birmingham, Alabama, author Deion Hixon spent his teenage years in Newman, Illinois. During WWII he served in the Army Air Corps, continuing his service in the Department of State and the Diplomatic Corps. He spent 14 years overseas before retiring to Miami, Florida. A devoted husband and the father of six grown children, Hixon spends his days on the Internet and writing stories. "Eagles of God II" is his second book.
