Fortis Publishing is proud to announce the official release of the highly anticipated debut novel Shadows of Tehran: Forged in Conflict by author Nick Berg. Available now through major retailers and independent bookstores nationwide, the novel has already garnered widespread critical acclaim for its powerful narrative, authenticity, and profound exploration of resilience and human courage in times of extreme adversity.
Inspired by true events, Shadows of Tehran intimately portrays the turbulent period of Iran's 1979 revolution through the eyes of Ricardo, a young Iranian-American struggling to find his identity amidst a backdrop of escalating violence, political upheaval, and personal tragedy. As the Shah's regime crumbles and revolutionary forces reshape his homeland, Ricardo endures familial betrayal, abuse, and persecution, driving him to escape the oppressive environment that threatens his life. His journey ultimately leads him from the embattled streets of Tehran to the ranks of the United States Special Forces, where he dedicates himself to the relentless pursuit of freedom, justice, and redemption.
Critics have praised Berg's debut for its emotional intensity, thrilling narrative, and undeniable authenticity. Kirkus Reviews commended the novel as "a very impressive debut," adding, "Berg has earned entrance to this genre club-readers will hope for further adventures." K.C. Finn of Readers' Favorite applauded its powerful blend of action and emotional depth, describing it as "a story that kept me hooked from start to finish, balancing vivid high-stakes action with deep, emotional storytelling that hits you hard."
Bestselling author Damien Lewis enthusiastically endorsed the book's authentic depiction of special forces operations, stating: "Gripping and heartfelt, this is thriller writing from one who has walked the walk and talks the talk. Nail-biting stuff, in the spirit of all highly experienced elite forces operators, this drips authenticity and tradecraft."
Lauren Hayataka from Independent Book Review highlighted the novel's thoughtful exploration of resilience and strength, describing it as "a blistering account of survival, identity, and resistance against the tide of history." She further emphasized its narrative strength, observing, "Berg captures the essence of personal strength and courage that emerges in the face of seemingly insurmountable adversity."
Early readers have echoed critics' enthusiasm, emphasizing the novel's profound impact. One Goodreads reviewer noted, "From the very first page, it pulled me in completely-I looked up, and suddenly, I was finished, desperate to know what happens next."
Shadows of Tehran stands out not only as a gripping tale of survival and resilience but also as a timely exploration of the complexities of identity, duty, and human spirit amid geopolitical upheaval. Author Nick Berg, drawing deeply from his personal experiences and insights into military operations, vividly brings to life a narrative that resonates with authenticity and emotional resonance.
