When a fatal flaw threatens to overshadow our best intentions, is it because we defy the influence of our environment? Or because we succumb to it. Although this story could be told anywhere, it could happen nowhere else and perhaps in no other decade, when intolerance of race, sex, lifestyle, and the military defined the times, when Americans' faith in government was shaken by Vietnam and Watergate, women would begin taking appointments to the military academies, the country was recovering from the tensions of the 1960's, the atheist movement was challenging any combination of God and government, and the Midwest was blighted by the incident at Wounded Knee. Emerging from his sheltered small town life, Gene Townsend is altered by an institution where - at that time - young men from all walks of life and every state in the union were thrust together in that microcosm called The Academy. In his quest to learn the true meaning of honor, courage, faith, and love, Gene forges friendships - some of them redemptive, others dangerously caustic - that influence his path to manhood, affecting the balance he hopes to acquire, the esteem he aspires to achieve, and the love he longs to share. FORWARD by Stephen Kentucky (Ky) Webb. USAFA Class of 1976As a contemporary graduate of USAFA with the author, I have a distinct appreciation of the story Charles Williams has woven in his latest novel. I enjoyed the accurate remembrances of cadet life, both uplifting and depressing, from regulation and ritual, through the demands on time, mind, and body, to the valuable, identity-forming human interaction and relationships with other cadets.While cadets are normal (mostly!) college-age youth with the same immaturity and social needs as their civilian college peers, they live in a pressure cooker of hardened rules and expectations. This life is on full display in Williams' novel.But this is not a documentary on AFA cadet life. The Academy serves as a stage on which Williams has placed his characters, and the story is much more about their actions and reactions to the environment and, more importantly, to their friends and nemeses.The title of the novel reminds us of the corollary tenet of the AFA Honor Code which holds that cadets must hold their fellow cadets to the same high standard of honor required of themselves. In my day, teamwork, esprit de corps and looking out for your brother cadet was stressed in training. A soldier will say that the prime motivation for bravery, heroism, and reliable performance in combat is that unquenchable desire to protect and support your brother soldiers. Not tolerating, hence snitching or ratting out a fellow cadet thus poses a moral dilemma for a young man. Williams weaves this conflict into his story.I admire Williams' skill in overlaying a poignant human story on a deeper moral framework that will speak to every reader, regardless of your connection to service academies or the military. What readers say about Nor Tolerate Among us: What a gift an author has to make the characters come alive as we feel those characters' joy and sorrow, excitement and introspection. Keep up the Good Work, Charles! I anxiously await your next book! Lynda DeWitt Kalantzakis Great book! Actually teared up at the end. I loved reading it entirely! Thank you! Hamp Heard, USAFA Class of 1977 Five squadrons, 5 Groups in 5 years (including Basic). Charles Williams knows the "Blue Zoo" better than most. He offers insights and experiences all generations will enjoy. John Hope, USAFA Class of 1976

On the cusp of what some have called the "New Age of Terrorism," three brothers must come to terms with an unthinkable reality that invades their well-ordered existence. An ingenious, powerful, and untraceable stealth weapon, designed by a gifted and resourceful young man, is placed in the hands of a secretive and elite council comprised of some of the most powerful men and women in the world.Realizing they must either fight back or remain forever stained by their own compliance, character demands the brothers confront this covert world. Pursued by members of the council on one hand and the weapon's designer on the other, the brothers struggle to maintain their individual integrity while preserving the endangered lives of those they love and have loved.The lives of the three brothers are irreversibly altered when they are thrust in close proximity to the clandestine affairs of this secret group whose true motivation remains as obscure as its intended target. As the true purpose of the conspiracy is exposed, it becomes clear that what is at stake is not merely the brothers' survival, but the balance of economic power in the world.

What Readers say about Higher Than The Angels: I was riveted. I loved it! Although this book is written as a novel, the people, events, and flying are the real deal. If you want to get your head inside what it was really like to fly in a front line F-4 fighter squadron this is the book for you! Once I started, I couldn't put it down! A great read! I enjoyed it immensely. Charles Williams does an excellent job of appealing to a wide audience: something for everyone. Thank you for refreshing my rapidly fading memory of my Torrejon tour, some good (the flying) and some bad (bull fights). Again, congratulations on a great book! The book is very well written and has excellent descriptions. Although this story did not deal with my preferred subject matter, it held my attention well. It does give a vivid picture of the life of a fighter pilot, and it makes me appreciate what they must have experienced. I never knew how dangerous it could be. Description: While this is a story about fighter pilots and those who love them, it transcends that world as the author delves into the human condition and how we deal with loss and success and excess. The essence of the fighter pilot lies in the fact that he (or she) is usually a person of ordinary upbringing who has been thrust into the unique world of those who fly and fight under the primal directive: Survive. He desires to prove his mettle. It is such desire that enables the fighter pilot to hurdle obstacles which would otherwise disrupt his ambition. But he does not act alone. Those who love fighter pilots accept the difficult task of sharing this world with them. For nearly two decades after Vietnam, only a handful of fighter pilots fired shots in anger. The remainder learned to cope with a world at peace, entertaining unique diversions, often devised with distinctive rapscallion humor to release stored up energy and relieve pent up stress. Being away from family and friends during the delicate first years of a marriage can be difficult. And when newlyweds are transplanted to a foreign country where the young bride is alone weeks at a time while the man she loves flies in other far away foreign countries, navigating through the fusion of war games and games of love can take its toll. For youth is not just an age, it is a condition. And coming of age is not limited to the adolescent. Where there is great opportunity there is also grave danger. It is appropriate that this novel is dedicated in remembrance of all those who have made that supreme sacrifice. And in honor and memory of all fighter pilots and those that love and have loved them.
