WHAT ARE THE WASHBURN CHRONICLES?

My name is Ron Darling, I am the author of the Washburn Chronicles. I have been an avid reader of many authors and especially Vince Flynn, Brad Thor and Clive Cussler for many years. Their work has always inspired me and eventually led me to sitting down and writing Serpent. While writing it I realized I was opening a story line that could be never ending. A chronicle of the hero's ancestors and their contributions to our world. Nick Washburn is the current hero for our time, he is "that guy" the one the president calls when something has to be done that no one else can handle. Like SEAL team 6 is in real life he does what no one else is capable of in my novel. His story is one of DNA. His father, and his father's father and ancestors all the way back to the Kings of France have been the ones people looked to in times of need. The current stories Serpent and coming soon Scorpion tell tales of Nick and his team, as well as many other heros and what they do and go through for all of us. In future books I will venture into the past and tell stories of his ancestors...those who were "that guy" and in some cases "that gal" in times gone by.

My stories are a tribute to the real life heros, the men and women of our Armed Forces and Police, Firefighters, and the rest of Americans who strive to keep us the land of the free because they are the brave.

REVIEWS

1. nebsal
"Great read. I enjoyed all the attention to detail. I was on the edge of my
seat to see what would happen next and what part of the world I would be in on
the next page. The characters were so believable. I even learned some things
about other parts of the world and covert operations. It was a very enjoyable
book. Can't wait for the next in the series."

2. JoyBy

"The Serpent is well written and obviously painstakenly researched! First,
let me tell you, I am not a fan of shoot `em up books or movies, but I found I
couldn't put the Serpent down! I purchased The Serpent as soon as it became
available on Amazon for my new Kindle Fire. I think Ron Darling is an amazing
author! I truly am impressed! This book may have converted a tried and true
peace lovin', wanna be, old hippie mama to enjoy a little...(actually quite a
bit!) of espionage, U.S. covert operations, and red, white, and blue fire power!
I wish Ron Darling the best of luck on all of his book releases! I will be one
of his biggest fans!"

3. Well done!, January 30, 2012

"Ron Darling has done a
great job on his first release. I have read many now famous authors first
efforts after the fact, and must say that this author has done a great opening
performance. Attention to detail with obvious knowledge of the terrain,
architecture and weaponry make it easy to slip into the read. The overall story
was very well thought out and flowed well. The book starts off a bit long on the
narrative but starts to accelerate at about the 25% mark. This is one of those
kind of books that most people will go back and read after the author is
"suddenly discovered" after 3 or 4 books, and the new reader gets hooked on the
character and wants to go back and read everything the author has written about
the hero. I have done that personally many times and feel fortunate that this
time I had the chance to get in on the ground floor and can now watch the author
and the character evolve. Again Mr. Darling, well done."
