About the author
Stephen Taylor

His Amazon bestselling Danny Pearson series has sold well over 250,000 copies, and delighted lovers of the action and adventure thriller genre. Before becoming a novelist, he ran his own business, installing audio visual equipment for homes and businesses.
With the big 50 approaching, Stephen wrote the book he’d always wanted to. That book was Execution Of Faith. A supercharged, action packed roller coaster of a ride that doesn’t take itself too seriously. People loved the book so much he wrote a prequel Vodka Over London Ice.

Not to mention his love of action movies, Die Hard, Daniel Craig’s Bond and Guy Richie’s Lock Stock or Snatch. The Danny Pearson series moves along with hard and fast action, no filler, and a healthy dose of humour to move it along.

A truly awesome action ride!
They say that there is an art to writing short stories. Well if there is, this author has it in heaps. This was an action packed roller coaster which had more to it than a lot of full length novels and keeps you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. Looking forward to reading more!

Brilliant short story , I thought no one could be as bad as Nicholas Snipe then up pops his equally deranged older brother , full on action from beginning to end.

Just when you thought it was Snipeless. Danny Pearson can't seem to catch a break. It's a fast ride and you wonder who is going to win this round.

Fills in some details
This story fills in some details, background and consequences of the authors excellent book Elimination of Faith, but it works just as well as a stand alone tale. For me this is definitely an author to follow. Thank you Stephen.

This was a different type of short story, it was almost a joke. I did't know if the story was like a fairy tale at first because the characters were like super power people? I would tell potential readers to look for something else to spend their time on.

If this is an example of Stephen Taylor’s thriller fiction, it’s a good preamble. The action is non-stop and narrative true to the genre. Enjoyable in its own way.
But… Though well written overall, there’s too much local idiom usage and reinforced violence to rate higher.

This short story was my introduction to Danny Pearson. I read it in a few hours, unputdownable as it was. Fast paced action, if a bit violent. Great read.

Interesting read
I like the criminal minds/law and order vibes from this short story. It is interesting to read and caught my attention when I read a little about it first.

A man out for revenge who will stop at absolutely nothing to gain what he's set his mind too. Murder and death, execution style.
Wow just wow. Action from start to finish. So fast paced, action didnt let up one bit. Short read of about an hour but an intense read 😊.

"Fast and Furious"
If you enjoy violent fast-action movies then this will be right up your street. Suspend belief and dive in for a quick read.
