One Rough Man

In Brad Taylor's One Rough Man, the first installment in the Pike Logan military/political thriller series, this debut would have you at the edge of your seat from start to finish. Pike Logan was a devoted family man and a Navy SEAL. He promised his wife that he would retire after one last tour of duty, when the call came in to serve for his country. But while he was in action, he learned about the devastating news that his family was killed by a brutal home invasion. And that had pushed him over the edge and to distance himself from the Taskforce. For Jennifer Cahill, she wanted to search for her uncle and to help him with the journey to find the missing treasure in a temple in Central America. That's when Pike meets her at the most unexpected time, when someone wanted to rough her up. From there, he saved her life and went to help her to search for clues and ran into a notorious drug log and two people who had mugged him-those two people were terrorists and on a mission of their own. From there, they needed to track them down on a grueling trek all the way into Europe, when one ruthless person who has a connection to the White House wants them out of the way at all costs. It's up to them to stop this WMD in its tracks before it self-destructs and calls a third world war with an explosive ending that would blow you away.

This was a mind-blown military/political thriller that would have you at the edge of your seat from start to finish. It would leave you hanging on every page and keep you hooked on this fantastic and powerful journey. I did care for Pike and how he dealt with the impact of the loss of his wife and daughter in his own way and how he took charge to help out Jennifer at the worst inopportune times. I did care for her and how she somehow impacted his life in a good way to make a remarkable team--a force to be reckoned with too. This would keep you in suspense with mind-blowing vivid imagery and scenic locations from Central America to Europe and back to the USA. This has non-stop action, intrigue, plenty of drama and a lot of mystery with hot topic political issues in current news.

The Forgotten Solider

In Brad Taylor's the Forgotten Soldier, the 9th installment in the Pike Logan military thriller series, this dealt with real life issues like the ongoing war against terrorism overseas. For Guy George, he lost his brother in the war and received his box of his belongings.Now as a solider himself, he believed he was killed by the Afghans in the war. With Guy's insane suspicions, it was up to Pike Logan and his task force team to back him up and fight in the war, when Secretary State Billings had caught up in the crosshairs of the lines of fire. In the end, Guy risked his life and saved another, losing his own on the line. For Pike and the others, they finished what he started to clean up the ugly mess and take care of business in the honor of his memory.

This was a gripping and compelling military thriller that dealt with real life events in the ongoing warfront. I really cared about Pike, Jennifer and his task force, especially for Guy who lost his brother before he lost his own life in the end. I became suspicious of Billings and his corrupt misuse and abuse of political power. The locations on and off the war was fantastic in the Middle East and also back in the USA to take it back home. The settings were very realistic to set the scene with fast action-packed scenes. Pike's task force team are a force to be reckoned with in this military novel.
