Dave Edlund's latest tale to feature his stalwart Peter Savage features the ultimate high-stakes plot to either destroy America or change it forever. Lethal Savage never lets up or lets us down, while making masterful use of both contemporary geopolitics and cutting-edge technology. A tour de force in all respects!" ─ Jon Land, USA TODAY bestselling author of the Murder, She Wrote series and Caitlin Strong series

Grows on You!
I thought the first novel started off a bit slow. I was trying to determine just who Peter Savage was and how he fit into this "adventure" novel. The story gained some momentum as it went along. As each story progressed, Peter became more defined and more interesting as a character. By the end of the fourth book, he had become a McGiver-like character who's adventures kept me turning the pages.

An interesting read
The event central to this book 4 provides a real conundrum. Conspiracy theorist will have a field day seeking reasons for such a heinous act. Johnson and McNamara have much to answer for their handling of Viet Nam. This is another indicator of their abuse of power and deception to the American people.

A very well developed group of stories .
Each of the Peter Savage novels covers different concepts that are each valued for originality and validity. The depth of their research and realism takes me into a place that entertains and makes me think. I will be looking forward to Mr. Edmunds future writings.

The 3rd book....I did'nt get to. The over abundance of unnecessary scientific detail had me bored off ! The author tries to overdo the background detail of whatever scientific premise the story revolves around. But I did enjoy the stories and the action. Does what books should do, keep one entertained and the mind busy.

Good, easy reading diversion
These were good stories that read quickly and kept me interested. Some of the topics are very scary given the current state of the word. Characters were well written and I connected with them. Kindle edition needs an editor to review and fix obvious problems.

All For The "LESSER"
Of course this is a great series, it couldn't be any other way, for we are talking about Peter Savage aren't we!😀 Great characters, awesome plot and a storyline which can go on forever. Savage is my man and he loves his dog.

Action packed
All four of these books were just fantastic. I think I read them in record time because they sucked me in from the very beginning and I’m eager to start the next series. The author is now one of my favorites.

Extremely exciting series!
If you liked Tom Clancy and Lee Child you'll enjoy the Savage series. Each episode is action packed as well as educational.

Peter Savage rocks!
Author Dave Edlund has created a new action hero. Savage is up for anything and can even compete successfully against Mossad.
