[Pike Logan is a] feisty, devil-may-care hero.
Logan is a tough, appealing hero you’re sure to root for.
Pike ranks right up there with Jason Bourne, Jack Reacher, and Jack Bauer.
As usual in the Pike Logan series, the spycraft and related technology are fascinating, the dialogue crackles, and all the players are operating in an international sea of moral ambiguity. Recommend Pike Logan to readers who like their spies tough, smart, and bordering on superhuman.
Mesmerizing...[Taylor] adds his trademark rapid-fire pace and action scenes that rival the best of Brad Thor and Vince Flynn. A must-read for all hardcore thriller fans.
Providence Journal on Daughter of War
Brad Taylor continues to dominate the military thriller genre, and it’s not close.
Comparisons to Vince Flynn and Brad Thor are expected and not inaccurate, but Taylor is now in a class by himself.
Booklist (starred review) on The Forgotten Soldier
Anyone who was a fan of the late legendary author Vince Flynn should read Taylor, the heir apparent to the Mitch Rapp series.
Crimespree Magazine on Ghosts of War
Few authors write about espionage, terrorism, and clandestine hit squads as well as Taylor does.
Taylor has already established himself as a master of special-ops thrillers, and this one will only add to his stellar reputation…Taylor adds human depth to his usually plot-driven novels, and the result is one of his best books to date.
Booklist (starred review) on Daughter of War
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 on All Necessary Force
Brad Taylor’s aptly titled Ring of Fire continues his ambitious evolution from master of the military thriller to more of an American John le Carré, with just enough Robert Ludlum sprinkled in for good measure.
Praise for Brad Taylor and the Pike Logan Series: “[A] page-turning thriller...Taylor is one of today’s premiere authors writing about the world of special ops.

With his experience in Special Forces, retired Lt. Col. Taylor (Daughter of War , 2019, etc.) brings an unquestionable level of authenticity to his Pike Logan series of military thrillers. Relaxing alongside Jennifer Cahill, his romantic and business partner, Pike is at home in Charleston, South Carolina, when a dear mentor and brother in arms is killed in a car-bomb explosion that Pike is sure was meant for him. Then, Pike's sense of hypervigilance is piqued further when a Thai mercenary and old friend reaches out from the shadows to warn him that the threat is far from over. The web of intrigue becomes increasingly layered when Pike's elite unit, the Taskforce, which is already working in the tri-border region between Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay to quell Hezbollah activity, finds itself in the midst of a thick Russian plot. When the same ex-Russian Spetsnaz soldiers who were behind the attack at Pike's home also attempt to gain control of the Brazilian economy and political structure through a series of coordinated assassinations, Pike's quest for personal retribution and his sense of service to American foreign interests commingle. Throw in some former Israeli Mossad agents and the cast of international elite operators along with the level of bone-crushing violence is almost overflowing.
A surefire hit for those who like contemporary foreign affairs spiced heavily with page-turning action.
