My Tagline: Lee Jackson Brings Heat To The Cold War. I write Historical Thriller Fiction - particularly surrounding the Cold War. Having lived in Morocco, Germany, Costa Rica, and of course in the United States; and, having been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan for a combined 38 months, I've been up-close-and personal with many different cultures. I graduated from West Point and Boston University, resulting in a front row seat on many pivotal events. I live in Texas with my wife. My first novel, "Curse The Moon" was published on 10 December 2013. I publish under my own name, Lee Jackson.
Once again Atcho faces the evil terrorist Klaus who is committed to destroying Atcho and his family, and using his stolen atomic bombs to bring down the United States. He is working with Osama bin laden's terrorist group and the Hezbollah, who have joined forces to attack their common enemies. The writing is smooth and clear, and both old and new characters are very realistic. Suspense builds through the story as government forces plant their heads firmly in the sand. While this story is a continuation, the author includes enough background to make the book freestanding. However I recommend these books be read in order. I was an advanced reader for this book and decided to leave a review because I really enjoyed it. All the good guys are people you want to know.
I received an Advance Reader Copy of Lee Jackson’s Target New York from the publisher and chose to provide this review. To be honest, this was my first book by Lee Jackson, but it won’t be my last, in fact after I finished Target New York, I went looking for other books he has written and imagine my surprise when I learned Target New York was the filth in a series. This book was so well written that I really thought it was a stand-alone story about terrorists being hunted by government/contract agents. It has very well-developed characters whose backstories were briefly mentioned throughout the story. I’m hooked and fully intend on going back and reading the first four stories to immerse myself in those earlier stories.
The tension remains high in the fifth installment of the Reluctant Assassin series as Atcho and his team seek to locate and stop a Chechen Muslim terrorist before he strikes again. The stakes are high since the next attack may involve a nuclear device. The suspense in this story is heightened by the backdrop of the February 1993 World Trade Center bombing. The narrative maintains a steady pace as the storyline moves between the United States, South America, Europe, and the Middle East. Overall, this book was very entertaining. (Note: I received an Advance Review Copy of this book.)
NYC has become the hotbed. A terrorist is targeting the World Trade Center. But it's more than the target, it's personal. The twists and turns are clever, as are both the cat and mouse. Author Lee Jackson has another action-packed winner in this 5th of the Reluctant Assassin series. It also reads fine as a standalone due to the author's re-introduction of key characters and events.
Intense International Terrorist Thriller! A fast paced drama full of suspense, intrigue, twists, interesting realistic characters, plenty of action, and well worth reading. The story is so gripping that I couldn’t put it down. Enjoy!
I received an advance copy and am happy to leave my honest review.
I completely enjoyed this series and his WW2 series. Excellent writer So many good things to say about Lee Jackson. His research is in depth. His writing is captivating. I couldn't put it down. I will now read anything by this author. I highly recommend everything he has written.
Great action and suspense in this last book in The Reluctant Assassin Series. Actually there was great action and suspense in the entire series. Once I started the book I couldn’t put it down. Lee Jackson is an amazing writer, I have now finished both series that he has written and I hope he writes more.
An excellent terrorist story with a great storyline and strong realistic characters. A well written book with plenty of non-stop action and lots of suspense. Very enjoyable read that was hard to put down. Highly recommended book and series. Ready for the next adventure with Atcho and Sophia.
The author has written a great story about the struggle of a one mans passion to get revenge an another mans actions to prevent that from happening. A story full of action and suspense.
By book 5, the plot has become monotonous & boring. Atcho is once again the lone cowboy who jumps in as the undercover private civilian to take down klaus. It’s so predictable. I hope to never see another book in this series.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Unfortunately, the last book in this magnificent series. True historical figures as well as fictional are mentioned throughout this book as well as the previous books in this series. Most of the terrorist strikes actually occurred. Atcho and his wife Sophia survived, walking wounded Mentally and physically. Many of their comrades did not. Again a stupendous five book series. My highest recommendation!!!
