About the author

Remington Kane

252 books128 followers
Remington Kane is an American author that writes action-packed thrillers. The author might be unfamiliar to some people because Remington Kane is actually a pseudonym for Donald Wells.

Donald Wells has garnered a reputation for writing darker and somewhat serious novels about killers. The author was born in New Jersey. He never really left and has since made a home there. Like most of his peers, Donald Wells was an avid reader as a child.

He spent many an hour devouring every book he came across. And it wasn’t long before he began to yearn for the chance to write. Like many aspiring authors, Donald Wells knew he had the capacity to tell stories. However, he was a little hesitant to venture into such uncharted waters, not only because he didn’t know where to start with regards to writing a book but also because he didn’t have confidence in his own ability to produce compelling fiction.

Again, like most notable authors, Donald meandered about for a while. Rather than going into publishing the first chance he got, Donald tried his hand at various odd jobs. He worked as an insurance salesman, a Real Estate Sales person, and even a Retail manager.

The jobs, though seemingly meaningless in the grand scheme of things, did wonders for the author’s writing capabilities. Whether he was driving trucks or cleaning floors, Donald gained insight into the workings of the world.

He met unexpected people and heard their intriguing stories. He came across numerous strange encounters and even participated in some of them. He essentially dipped into so many unique aspects of life that it came as no surprise that he had more than enough stories rattling around his head when it finally came time to write his first novel.

Not that many authors can claim to have been offered a chance to act as bodyguard to a drug dealer. Since getting his first book sold, though, Donald has finally settled in his career. The author loves writing novels and there is nothing he else he would rather be doing. The fact that he has found a way to make money out of his passion makes him one of the luckier individuals in the world.

By the time Donald Wells began writing as Remington Kane, he had already become established as a novelist with numerous thrillers under his name. However, writing as Remington practically took over his life.

This is because Donald has achieved more success writing as Remington Kane than he did producing novels under his real name. Kane is best known for the Tanner series of novels. Tanner is a hit man who accepts a job to take out a mob boss.

When he is betrayed and thrown into prison, Tanner thinks of little else besides getting revenge. And once he finally gets his freedom, the hit man becomes a one man army, engaging in a brutal way against a crime organization known as the Conglomerate.

Each new book sees Tanner raising the stakes by finding a new target that will sting the Conglomerate in ways they couldn’t possibly fathom.

Remington Kane has been praised for the Tanner novels because Tanner is such a refreshing hero. The protagonist is so average physically, devoid of the exaggerated traits that most action heroes seem to bear. If not for his natural fighting and survival instincts, one would be hard pressed to tell Tanner apart from any other ordinary man on the street.

A solid story in the franchise. Remington Kane churns out Tanner books at an amazing rate: 34 Tanner books, 4 prequel "Tanner: Year #" books, 8 "Young Guns" prequel books, and a number of short stories. Having read nearly all of them, there's always a new book on the horizon. A few of them have been a bit lesser than the others, and a few have surpassed, but the books are chock full of cool, interesting characters. The books are also filled with by-the-numbers antagonists and simplistic side characters, with very predictable plots thrown in. That said, it's a super fun, quicky read, and well written series that's good comfort food. I always enjoy reading Tanner books as soon as they're out. They're not deep, heavy, classic literature, and I'm 100% fine with that.

Tanner: Year Four has our hero taking care of a job for Horrigan (mere 30-1 odds), and then taking on a personal fight for a new friend against a white supremacy group (racists always make good antagonists) to save a mother and daughter. No obvious advancement to the series as a whole, but chock full of good Tanner action.

A Tiger By The Tail!!

When the tiger tells you to let go of its tail, you do it!. The writer gives us a meat story we can sink your teeth into. We start out with such a good intro and the train just gets going full steam. There are some moments you just laugh out loud at the craziness. This was very entertaining and the writing as always top notch!

Tanner: Book 4

Tanner find some self keeping busy with business contracts and find himself doing a small job for a friend that had done a job prior with him. As the story progresses, pay attention to the details as it all gets buttoned up at the end once again Tanner is right on top of everything.

Tanner Year 4

Another good read in the Tanner series. This one took place in the past and filled in another gap in his life. Plenty of action as per normal. This one proves you don’t mess with someone who is a friend of Tanner. Recommended.

Great fun, quick adventure

Another great story building on one of my favorite characters. Is so good at making the reader feel like they are a friend of Tanners. Always a one or, at most two session read, hard to put down.

Young Tanner gets it done

“You’re like a guardian angel with a gun.”
… Unless you are the target of the assassin known as Tanner —then he's the demon sending you straight to hell & that's a promise guaranteed!

Fabulous!

Tanner is a true delight to follow. He is afraid of nothing and nobody/groups of Mob mercenaries. Life is never boring with Tanner.
