Pike Logan is an awesome character that Taylor has built to be one of the top fiction characters in the thriller game. I have loved the series and was hooked from the beginning with One Rough Man. If you want dedicated, battle hardened, and weathered warriors, and maybe even a well timed Princess Bride quote, American Traitor is the one for you!
This adventure takes pike and Jennifer Cahill (Koko) on a trip to Australia, where a storm of political proportions raises to a head between mainland China and Taiwan. This is right out of the news in modern times. Taylor does a great job of sticking with current geopolitical trends that are going on in the world currently and allowing to play into his craft. The amount of intrigue in this is second to none. There is plenty of bad actors going in different directions, and Taylor does a great job of keeping it sorted well to keep you wondering what is next.
The ferociousness and levelheadedness of the Taskforce is present as you see the internal struggle of a team placed with overwhelming odds. Cahill is a warrior of epic proportions herself as she plays cool, calm, and collected while Pike is hell bent on revenge because of the death of a former teammate.
The action is topnotch, locations authentic, and story telling from a first person point of view gives you a clear picture. You can't go wrong with any Brad Taylor thriller, and this one is a 5 star read that will keep you wondering how the Taskforce is going to work their way out of trouble.
