Able Team #21
Death Strike
Carl Lyons is a prisoner of the Fascist International, and his longtime nemesis Miguel de la Unomundo is offering the Able Team vet an escape from his brain-twisting torture.
The pain was the hammer and the anvil between which Unomundo would smash Lyons until his sanity shattered. And then he would remold the antiterrorist specialist in his own image.
If a man sells his loyalty, he'll sell anything . . .or anyone!

This is a fun one though the ending is crazy in a not unpleasing way. The ideal is that the International, a criminal/terroist organization with billions of dollars behind it, has been behind alot of the groups that Able Team has fought. The main combat leader of the International has been playing a long game to bring Lyons, a member of Able Team, into their fold to use him as their main assassin. Though Lyons had been playing a long con himself so after he is captured its his wits vs everything a sadistic organization can do. Also cant forget the other two members of Able Team who isnt leaving any stone unturned to find their friend, leading up to a huge bloody showdown.
GH Frost is back as author for this one after the odd flashback book 20. This is actually the direct sequel to book 19. And this ends a multiple book storyline since the International leadership has been something Able Team has been trying to get to for a long time by this point in the series.
Highly recommended for fans of the series or genre. Though you might want to read book 19 first. Again there is a lot of books that deal with the International group, but there is enough background in book 19 and this one to where you wouldnt be lost if you dont read the others.

Die, Unomundo! is written large on the back of the book. Unomundo is the leader of an elite fascist group, and one of the Team's biggest enemies. He's not in this to much to be honest. It's his second in command who figures in the plot the most. This one veers a little off from a regular book in this series. Not a lot, but some.
A third of this book deals with The Team's leader, Carl Lyons, being tortured and made to switch sides to the fascists. The two other members try to hunt him down. This may not be the most violent in the series, but it's in the top three. Scene after scene of gruesome torture on display. This also may be the most sex that these books have had in them. As our Ironman leader, Lyons has group sex while high on opium. Hash and some Mary Jane.

A direct sequel to Able Team #19, which ended with Carl Lyons a prisoner of the International--a Fascist organization that the team had battle in several earlier novels.
The book ends with a fantastic epic battle that brings the International story arc to an end. Before that, the book is sparse on action, depending on the suspense generated by Lyons' struggle to resist torture, followed by his attempts to convince the bad guys he wants to switch sides. He's not 100% successful there--when his teammates find him during the final battle, he has to perform a bit of self-surgery to remove a remote-control explosive devise from his neck before he can join in the fight.
An unusual but satisfying entry in the series.
