ReviewsPraise for Days of Rage "A Pike Logan thriller filled with heart-thumping action and insane heroics...A fun, satisfying adventure."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Former Delta Force officer Taylor combines up-to-the-minute spy craft with musings about the morality of murder, even when justified, and shows that the latest gadgetry still can't replace human intuition and skill. Another exciting spy thriller from an author who knows the territory."-- Booklist "Taylor is adept at combining past tragedies, like the terrorist attack on the 1972 Munich Olympics, with more recent developments, like the Snowden disclosures, and tracking the geopolitical changes in between. Throw in modern technology, gunfights, hand-to-hand combat, and a daring race to prevent a disaster that would make the Munich Olympics attack pale by comparison, and you have a thriller that really thrills."-- Publishers Weekly More Praise for Brad Taylor and the Pike Logan series "Pike ranks right up there with Jason Bourne, Jack Reacher, and Jack Bauer."--John Lescroart, New York Times bestselling author "Fresh plot, great action and Taylor clearly knows what he is writing about....When it comes to tactics and hardware he is spot on."--Vince Flynn, #1 New York Times bestselling author "Logan is a tough, appealing hero you're sure to root for."--Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author "[Pike Logan is a] feisty, devil-may-care hero."--Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author "Taylor has become one of the very best writers of thrillers with a military and special-ops background...Comparisons to Vince Flynn and Brad Thor are expected and not inaccurate, but Taylor is now in a class by himself."-- Booklist "Slick, exciting action and credible complexity are the hallmarks of Taylor's high-caliber thrillers."-- Library Journal "Few authors write about espionage, terrorism, and clandestine hit squads as well as Taylor does."-- Houston Press "Action packed....Those who prize authentic military action will be rewarded."-- Publishers Weekly, "A Pike Logan thriller filled with heart-thumping action and insane heroics...A fun, satisfying adventure."- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Former Delta Force officer Taylor combines up-to-the-minute spy craft with musings about the morality of murder, even when justified, and shows that the latest gadgetry still can't replace human intuition and skill.
