About the author

Don Pendleton was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, December 12, 1927 and died October 23, 1995 in Arizona.

He wrote mystery, action/adventure, science-fiction, crime fiction, suspense, short stories, nonfiction, and was a comic scriptwriter, poet, screenwriter, essayist, and metaphysical scholar. He published more than 125 books in his long career, and his books have been published in more than 25 foreign languages with close to two hundred million copies in print throughout the world.

After producing a number of science-fiction and mystery novels, Don launched in 1969 the phenomenal Mack Bolan: The Executioner, which quickly emerged as the original, definitive Action/Adventure series. His successful paperback books inspired a new particularly American literary genre during the early 1970's, and Don became known as "the father of action/adventure."

"Although The Executioner Series is far and away my most significant contribution to world literature, I still do not perceive myself as 'belonging' to any particular literary niche. I am simply a storyteller, an entertainer who hopes to enthrall with visions of the reader's own incipient greatness."

Don Pendleton's original Executioner Series are now in ebooks, published by Open Road Media. 37 of the original novels.

Reviews

[Monica Willyard Moen · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is my favorite book in this series because I like the rich descriptions, complex characters, and the use of exotic bladed weapons, not just guns in battle. I also like the theme of how character or lack there of is forged under pressure. If I were going to buy a book from this series as an introduction to the Bolan adventures, this would be the book I'd choose.

False Front

The book was a good read. Full of action. It held your interest all through the book. If you like action,then this would be a good book to read. I would recommend it to anybody who likes action.

Secret bad guy.

The story was a nail bite to the very end. It kept .e guessing as to who they " secret " bad guy was.

I really this story Super Bolan a little slow so it can fill pages but this one moved along a good pace the end in New York was well done along with the end of the real man behind the scenes

This book is identical in every way to every other Executioner/Mack Bolan book I've worked on. Bloodthirst Muslims kidnap warm and generous Christian Westerners, behead some of them, then get slaughtered by Bolan. I like the part where he shoots the terrorist, splattering brain-matter all over the second one, who is then infected with the first one's HIV. That man then chooses to join Bolan and redeem himself because of his death sentence.

Wait, that might have been another Mack Bolan. Doesn't really matter anyway.

This is another no star book that gets one anyway because Goodreads is biased in favor of bad books.
