SHADOW STRIKE
BRAD TAYLOR
For those looking for an outstanding thriller, this reviewer highly recommends Brad Taylor’s 20th book featuring the indomitable Pike Logan. Logan’s mission is as real as today’s news. A terrorist has escaped, and Logan and his team are ordered to find him, a man who calls himself the Ghost. Logan and his team find out that the ghost is or has been tasked with killing a high Israeli official. This exciting thriller follows Logan and his cadre around the world, from Mexico to Argentina, as they discover that the plan devised by the ghost is even more perilous than they first expected. Shadow Strike is a thriller author in the vein of Mark Greaney and the late Tom Clancy. There are many moving parts in this exciting novel, featuring both good and bad characters. My recommendation would be to read at least some of the backlist and get familiar with Pike Logan and his comrades; this is Taylor’s 20th book, and by now he’s able to write a novel that stands on its own. Shadow Strike can definitely be read as a standalone or for the ambitious as part of the long backlist, as mentioned previously. Do yourself a favor, take this weekend, pick up a few of Brad Taylor’s Pike Logan adventures, and see what it’s like to be in the shoes of someone on the hunt as well as someone who is being hunted.
