Algeria is a hotbed of death squads and terorism, claiming thousands of lives each year as Libyan and Iranian-backed dissident armies murder and maim with abandon. When a CIA contract agent falls victim to the bloodlust, Mack Bolan enters the game, cutting through red tape with swift killing fire. Employing a strategy as old as war, his blitz pits rival factions against each other, sparking an all-out shooting spree that is turning the Algerian hellgrounds into a powder keg. All Bolan has to do is light the fuse.
The warrior can't bring the slaughtered innocent back to life, but Algiers will feel the full wrath of the Executioner.
Don Pendleton was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, December 12, 1927 and died October 23, 1995 in Arizona.
He wrote mystery, action/adventure, science-fiction, crime fiction, suspense, short stories, nonfiction, and was a comic scriptwriter, poet, screenwriter, essayist, and metaphysical scholar. He published more than 125 books in his long career, and his books have been published in more than 25 foreign languages with close to two hundred million copies in print throughout the world.
After producing a number of science-fiction and mystery novels, Don launched in 1969 the phenomenal Mack Bolan: The Executioner, which quickly emerged as the original, definitive Action/Adventure series. His successful paperback books inspired a new particularly American literary genre during the early 1970's, and Don became known as "the father of action/adventure."
"Although The Executioner Series is far and away my most significant contribution to world literature, I still do not perceive myself as 'belonging' to any particular literary niche. I am simply a storyteller, an entertainer who hopes to enthrall with visions of the reader's own incipient greatness."
Don Pendleton's original Executioner Series are now in ebooks, published by Open Road Media. 37 of the original novels.
