About the author
Stephen Taylor
27 books61 followersStephen Taylor is a successful British Thriller writer. His Amazon bestselling Danny Pearson series has sold well over 250,000 copies, and delighted lovers of the action and adventure thriller genre. Before becoming a novelist, he ran his own business, installing audio visual equipment for homes and businesses.
With the big 50 approaching, Stephen wrote the book he’d always wanted to. That book was Execution Of Faith. A supercharged, action packed roller coaster of a ride that doesn’t take itself too seriously. People loved the book so much he wrote a prequel Vodka Over London Ice. Because of the timeline, this became the first in the Danny Pearson Thriller Series.
Born out of his love of action thriller books, Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp and Tom Wood's Victor. Not to mention his love of action movies, Die Hard, Daniel Craig’s Bond and Guy Richie’s Lock Stock or Snatch. The Danny Pearson series moves along with hard and fast action, no filler, and a healthy dose of humour to move it along.

very good Thriller
A very good Thriller that has Pearson and his close friend Scott heading to Australia to meet Scott’s sister Nicki allowing Scott to arrange meetings to expand his business and give Pearson some relaxation time. On forgetting her phone at work Nicki returned to it and witnessed some strange activity and as the owner of the tech company was trying out a secret trial turning people normally placid and law abiding into killers he decided to have her killed. Pearson noticed the stakeout of her house and being followed the following day. The following attempts on her and Pearson’s left all three going on the run while working out a plan of attack. Fast moving action from this point onwards.

The first 6 were superb. A few minor plot holes but overall kept me wanting to buy the next book. Fast paced action and seemingly stuff that could and possibly does happen. But then Command To Kill. I may be in a minority here but the opening ‘gag’ was weak and very transparent and then it just degenerated into what I thought was a really poor Doctor Who style fantasy. The action scenes were as good as ever and the build up to the finale was also good but the plot - not for me. Doesn’t stop me reading the rest and I can confirm, book 8 puts Danny back into the (almost :) ) believable good stuff.

Danny’s visit to Australia
A simple visit with his friend Scott to visit his sister and also visit the new office he was setting up for the security firm in Sydney, Scott had a business meeting, Danny was down as his assistant so his travel was paid for, nothing is ever that simple. Great book, they find themselves having to saving Nikki and themselves when she discovers some strange unexplained things going on g on at the company she works for when returning at night to retrieve her phone, it was the only number her brother had who was arriving shortly from the UK.

This is the seventh book in the Danny Pearson series.
Anyone that knows me they know that I absolutely love Danny Pearson and he has grown so much as a character that you believe that he is real.
I've also said that Vodka over London Ice has been my favourite book in the series but boy does Command To Kill come in a very close second!
Another great action packed adventure from the great Stephen Taylor.

Brilliant series
Having smashed my way through all of Stephen Leather’s Spider Shepard books I was looking for a new series to get into - the Danny Pearson series has not disappointed, gritty, action packed and fun - loved them and would recommend to anyone who likes SAS/Spy/crime thrillers
Keep them coming
