The next installment in the MGSI Universe is officially in the home stretch.

Running With the Gods: Kostas Book II has entered final editing with the publisher. This marks a major milestone in bringing Kostas Papadopoulos's most personal and harrowing journey to readers. The manuscript is locked, the narrative arcs are complete, and every page bleeds with emotional weight, tactical intensity, and the ghosts that refuse to stay buried.

This novel picks up where No Longer in Uniform left off—only this time, the lines between ally and adversary, mission and memory, start to blur. Jess Sparrow, Susan Hendricks, and the entire MGSI team are back in play, navigating a high-stakes WMD investigation while confronting the consequences of choices made long ago.

But at its core, this is Kostas’s reckoning. With war. With guilt. With survival.

Stay tuned for pre-order details, exclusive chapter previews, and a behind-the-scenes look into how this story came to life. This one doesn’t flinch. Neither should you.
