Phoenix Force #41
Amazon Strike
Kurt Mohn runs more than a cocaine-smuggling operation from his Amazon jungle stronghold. A Tuetonic madman in neo-Nazi clothing, he prepares his New Order of Aryan supremacists to unleash the twisted ideology of Adolf Hitler on the world. The Third Reich is about to be reborn.
Phoenix Force is dispatched to sever the cocaine pipeline and dig to the heart of Mohn's conspiracy of terror. But Katz and his men storm into the waiting guns of Mohn's own strike force - and the horrifying instrument of the self-styled Fuhrer's master plan for global takeover.

About the author
Jim Wilson
254 books15 followersJim Wilson could have simply dismissed himself as a competent piano tuner-technician, even an exceptional one. But he was and is so much more, and it took the sudden death of a dear friend and the encouragement of a legendary singer/songwriter to prove it to him.
From a broken home in Amarillo, Texas to a multi-award-winning recording artist, Jim Wilson’s journey is a captivating tale of showbiz glamour, personal tragedy, self-discovery, and dogged determination. And, as is typical of Jim Wilson, he’s turned out to be a pretty good wordsmith.
Tuned-In: Memoirs of a Piano Man is a page-turner and a life-changer. It’s a self-help book in the form of an autobiography. It is entertaining, revealing and full of lessons for musicians, fans, and all readers.
Jim Wilson’s life direction was set when he was given a guitar at age 7, then began composing songs at age 9. Soon after moving from West Texas to LA in his early 20’s, he gained a reputation as a respected piano technician, catering to the highest echelon of the music industry. Jim helped develop the first MIDI-adapter for acoustic piano in the 80’s, which became an instant hit with artists and studios around the world.
It was the shocking, untimely death of his closest friend that forced Jim to question the whole purpose of his life. With the love and support of his musical heroes – most significantly his friend and mentor, Dan Fogelberg -- Jim set out on a solo career, composing, recording and performing his signature style of piano-featured instrumentals.
Four of Jim’s ten recordings have hit the Billboard Top-20, he’s had two PBS specials, and his music has been streamed over 75 million times by fans around the globe. He was recently made a “Lifetime Member” of the Recording Academy. He enjoys scuba diving, skiing, pilot lessons, and mountain biking. Tuned In is Jim’s first book.

Enjoyed this one by author Michael Linaker, though it might be closer to a 3.5. This time the Force is against a mad man who think he is the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler. He is using the vast wealth his father (who was a Nazi) had along with a big cocaine producing outfit to fund a secret military base in the jungles of Brazil. When the cocaine ring is discovered, Phoenix Force is told to find it and destroy it. Though they find a huge base with plenty of wannabe Nazis and weapons. Making that job more difficult is their guide ended up being a traitor.
Recommend if you are reading the series. After the first few pages it flashes back to lead you back to that point for 50 pages or so which was annoying. But its action packed with an over the top villain so fun enough time waster.
