Robert Charleston

Robert Charleston is a former military linguist, veteran of the Afghanistan War, and new author with Tactical 16. While in uniform, he worked as an intelligence analyst and also taught at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, California, where he earned distinction as a Master Military Language Instructor during his years on staff.

Despite a 20-year career in the Air Force, his assignments saw him embedded at Army installations, and following his retirement, he commenced writing what would become his freshman foray into the world of the written word. Knight Rising is the initial entry in a two-part story that will conclude with its sequel, tentatively titled Fallen Knight, in the near future.

Robert’s new book, Knight Rising, is a fictional narrative tracing the turbulent romance between two veterans over 15 years. Multiple locations, including a Texas prison to locales around the United States and in the Middle East, serve as the backdrop for this love story.

An avid fan of cinema and music, Robert can often be found enjoying films across multiple genres, and has completed numerous distance runs, including the Air Force Marathon. Born in Alabama, he was raised in Georgia, and enlisted in the military upon graduating from high school. Currently, he resides in Augusta, Georgia and continues to serve Fort Eisenhower and the military at large as a counselor for service members preparing to separate from the armed forces.

  1. Alicia S.

    As a long-time friend of the author and a fellow military retiree, I was beyond excited to hear that Robert Charleston was publishing his debut novel: the first half of a two-part story. He has always had a way with words, and the book did not disappoint. I read it in one sitting! The first chapter pulls you in, jumping right into the action. The following chapters, told in alternating perspectives of the two protagonists Rick and Jen, bring you along for the ride as we learn the background of how we ended up ‘here.’ I quickly grew invested in the characters and wanted to know what was going to happen next. Each storyline was compelling, and I really appreciated the way that he captured military life with its streaks of monotony interspersed with days that can change your life forever. And while the book does have a love story between two people at its core, it is also about love for country, friends, and fellow servicemembers. The ending will absolutely leave you craving for the second book to be published!
