Satisfaction guarantee
So satisfying to have s fictional character stand up for everyday people. It quenches my thirst for vengeance because the government leaves everyone scratching their heads thinking WTF is really going on. Not to be out done Captain Hook makes his appearance and earns love and respect by siding with monsters by protecting his feeders and attacking enemy boats. As always this book was great and you get a visit from all the characters plus a new one. Can't wait for the next book.

This series has the most amazing characters that we wish were real. Between Nick McCarty, John Harding and Captain Hook, it's impossible to choose a favorite, because fans love them all, along with their families and friends.
When the Unholies and the Monsters join forces, there is no escape from their just retribution. When they are targeted for death by Illuminati politicians and an unexpected celebrity who send hired killers, it doesn't end well for the hirers or the hirees.
Fans welcome the addition of Kade, John's precocious three-year-old son.

Please keep writing John Harding and Nick McCarty books.
Even though all the books basically have the same storyline, Mr Deleo hooks you right in. Awesome writing thank you. Please keep destroying the reputation of that cult Sharia law and it’s followers and please keep exposing our real politicians who want to destroy our great country and give it away. Even though you cannot use their real names,I along with the rest of your readers know who you are talking about. GOD BLESS THE U.S.A.

Another Breast Episode
The only part about Bernard LerDeleo's books that is a shame, is that there is no Dark Lord or El Puerto and their refilled in the real world. Once again Mr. LeeDeleo has written more pulp fiction about facts and liberals ruining America while John,Nick and the friends try to save the nation. Exciting, fun, great characters and just another enjoyable lounge in cheek novel to keep you reading and not wanting to stop. Always a great read and looking forward to the next one.

Bernard gets better with every book.
In the last Nick and Jean future when reading Kade, John's son, I thought I had missed a book somewhere along the way so I went through my Kindle library, but no, I read them all. Boy, this one was amazing. If little Kade were real, I'd adopt him...lol!
The action and humor, so Bernard. Loved it.
I need another asap. Impatiently awaiting!

Non-stop action
Mr DeLeo is without a doubt one of my top 3 favorite authors and once again he didn't disappoint. The usual Non-stop action, comedy, fights, shark feed gs and a lot more that I have come to expect and look forward to are all in this book. My only complaint is that there is no such thing as a book a week offer or a never-ending John Harding/Muerto story to read.

Fast action
As always a great read. John and Nick band together to take down the corrupt politicians selling out America. A big surprise awaits John, and he is thrilled with it. No spoilers read it and enjoy.

Another masterpiece!
His innuendos regarding the liberal politicians is a welcome addition to his already captivating story line. If only their demise was real!

First read 2019. Loved the sarcasm, characters, plot but hated the extreme right wing polemic. Re-read in 2020 during covid pandemic. Still amusing even with polemic. Re-read again in 2022.
