Wow… what a ride!! A super fast paced thriller that’s full of action, adventure and some of the darkest shades of human nature!
“He has a talent for violence”
Tommy Black is back in Chicago from his latest mission… but what he returns to is a sister who is in danger and a task to find his friend’s daughter who has gone missing in Mauritius. This ex-special forces hero will brave anything to complete his task even if it means getting bruised and bloodied. When he accidentally stops a child trafficking ring in Chicago while ending the threat to his sister, he realises there’s more happening than anyone knows. After the incident, where he leaves all the of the gang in shambles, he is under suspicion from the local PD and other agencies and it’s only a matter of time that they will catch up with him. He leaves Chicago and follows the trail for his missing girl from Mauritius to South Africa, leaving bodies in his wake and finding a trafficking ring that is bigger and more efficient than he thought!
This story was so fast paced and I loved feeling like I was in the middle of all the action! The book is full of blood, gore and a stark sort of violence that shows you the truly dark side of humans and what all they do in the name of money. The hero - who is no white knight - is such a determined man and I enjoyed the insight into his brain and thoughts! I’m definitely picking up the next Tommy Black story because he’s a force to be reckoned with!

This anthology of African-American poetry was published in 1968 by Baraka and Larry Neal. It is a collection of some of the most forward-thinking Black Artists of the day. By "foward-thinking," we mean Black Nationalism through Black Arts. Several of those who submitted their poetry to be included in this publication were part of his "Black Arts Repertory Theatre" (now defunct). Excellent cross-section of early Black Power writings.

William Kely McClung is not just an author but a multifaceted artist, encompassing photography, screenwriting, filmmaking, and martial arts. His works consistently reflect the theme that 'People are worse than anything we can make up, but of course, can be better than anything we imagine.' His influence in the arts is vast, and with "BLACK FIRE," the first volume of a promised series, he adds another feather to his cap. The novel showcases his unique talents, as evidenced by the intriguing opening line: '"He has a talent for violence." What the hell was that supposed to mean? The specificity of words was interesting…No propensity or tendency. Talent!...'
In "BLACK FIRE," McClung crafts a hero both visually and psychologically, introducing us to Major Tommy Black. He's at a turning point in his brilliant, secretive career, his black ops history hidden in buried records and whispered tales of violence. Lost and without direction, Black's life takes a sharp turn when the daughter of a fallen comrade is kidnapped. He channels all his military expertise and rage into a global race to save her, battling corrupt police, gangsters, mercenaries, and international sex traffickers controlled by a deranged villain.
The narrative is filled with action, depicting Black's relentless pursuit, even as converging 1000-year storms rage above. He sacrifices everything for the slim chance to save the girl and perhaps redeem his soul.
McClung's writing is vividly cinematic, a reflection of his background in filmmaking. His ability to create compelling characters and paint vibrant global settings is remarkable. The character of Tommy Black is poised to become a major new hero, with potential to join the ranks of iconic figures like Reacher and Bourne.
"BLACK FIRE" is more than just a novel; it's a thrilling experience, masterfully penned by a true professional. The book is not only excellent but also highly recommended, signaling the rise of a new literary hero and possibly paving the way for a blockbuster motion picture.

Oh, where do I start with "Black Fire" by Kely McClung? It's like stepping into a whirlwind of action that refuses to let you go until the very end. Our guy, Major Tommy Black, is kind of a big deal in the covert world, but even the best need a cause to fight for, right? Cue in a damsel in distress, but mind you, she's no ordinary damsel, and this is no ordinary distress. We're talking about the daughter of a fallen comrade whisked away by the kind of bad guys you wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley. Or a well-lit one for that matter.
McClung takes us on a globe-trotting adventure that is as scenic as it is perilous. And Tommy? He's the guy you want in your corner when things go south, which they do, repeatedly. The pace is like a rollercoaster, with enough high-speed descents to get your heart pounding and slow climbs that let you catch your breath before plunging again into the abyss of action.
The historical backdrop is like the cherry on this action-packed sundae, adding a layer of gravitas to Tommy's fist-flying, gun-blazing escapades. McClung's writing kept me anchored, even when Tommy is hopping continents faster than you can say 'international rescue'.
While the pacing had its moments of 'hurry up and wait', the unfolding character arc of Tommy Black is like watching a phoenix rise, and who doesn't love a good comeback story? "Black Fire" might not have redefined the genre, but it sure gives it a good shake, delivering a story that is as heart-rending as it is heart-racing. And let's face it, in a world where every day feels like a sequel to Groundhog Day, a little shake-up is exactly what the doctor ordered.

Black fire is the first book in the Tommy Black series Tommy is a man who is just retired from black ops and still haunted by childhood abuse and neglect. He was taken in by Big Al, Chicago hotdog vendor and the only father Tommy has ever known. He has a few close friends from black ops most of whom who now work for the Chicago PD. He also has a sister through big Al Jackie and his nephew Scotty. When one of his friends from the military Dylan commits suicide after killing his girlfriend. Because Tommy talked to him right before it happened Dylan‘s ex-wife Holly blamed him but when her daughter Sam goes missing while on vacation with her boyfriend she has no choice but to turn to the only man that she knows can get her back. Despite the fact her boyfriend was murdered during the kidnapping and he is the son of an American senator it is left up to Tommy and this is only after he takes care of a problem for his sister Jackie. This book is action packed if this series what it started with the whole thing with Dylan and his sister it’s still would’ve been a great book and one I would definitely want to read. Tommy black is not only capable he is intelligent and really cares about those he cares about although not overly emotional unlike most superheroes he still shows he is human in many ways whether it is with the black on Black joke or catching little Scotty in a bear hug I found him to be a great hero who is also human. I cannot wait for the next book this is definitely a series that will go on my TBR I absolutely love this book! Please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.

Black Fire is the first book in the Tommy Black Thriller Series ,and it sets the stage in a promising manner. The narrative is built around Major Tommy Black, a character who stands at the crossroads of a brilliant, yet concealed career in black ops. The story picks up pace when the daughter of a fallen comrade is kidnapped and Tommy finds himself in a brutal race across the globe to rescue her.
McClung's handling of the narrative got me hooked pretty early on. The plot is complex, yet it is untangled layer by layer, with the author maintaining a strong pace throughout. The protagonist Major Tommy Black is a character, despite his violent nature at times, that I was rooting for all the way. He's a man lost, without purpose or mission, but his determination to save the kidnapped girl is so strong that it resonates throughout.
The high-octane action is the heartbeat of this book. From the exotic Indian Ocean island of Mauritius to the remote interior of South Africa and across Europe into the towering mountains of Central Asia, McClung ensures a whirlwind tour, injecting each location with a sense of danger and urgency. This book has a generous amount of explosive action that kept me on edge, and stands alongside icons like Reacher and Bourne.
All in all Black Fire is an exciting action thriller that doesn't shy away from providing its readers with a large dose of suspense and adventure. Although it isn't without its flaws, it remains a promising start to what could become a riveting series.

I was just amazed to read such an impeccable action thriller. I never knew that an action story could grab so much attention.
The story starts with the background of the male protagonist "Major Tommy Black". He was brilliant, talented, and known for his valor and success. But an unfortunate incident with one of his colleagues makes him question himself, and he feels as if he is also responsible for that. What was that unfortunate incident? For that, you should read the book.
The story gets more engaging when "the kidnapping" of a girl gets introduced as a subplot. The girl is remotely associated with Tommy, and he feels responsible for getting her free. This gives him a motive and a mission. Further subplots are "action-rich," and trust me, you would not put down the book.
The author has created a well-drafted timeline, and the writing style aids in the visualization of each and every scene. You can actually visualize the drama while reading the book. This has been one of the many facets of this book. The story is fast-paced and would definitely keep the reader on edge.
Don't wait; grab your copy of this exciting read to know if he succeeded or how he succeeded in his "personal mission".

Just like the title says, this is a nail-biting action thriller of suspense!! It is very well written, and it captured my attention from page 1.
This book is kind of fast paced but rest assured, you’ll get all the feels, the anxiety and the mystery behind the story like if you were the hero himself. This story is about trafficking and has a lot of action, the hero, Major Tommy Black, a former black ops operative find himself helping a friend when his daughter is kidnaped. And so the adventure for Tommy begins. The author is very good at creating scenarios for a very skilled Tommy Black.

I was trending down on this book but it slowly piqued my interest. Interesting characters and settings. A good Liam Neeson-ish story line plus a surprisingly complex leading character. Well not too complex or unique just slightly different than many other ex special forces types.
Biggest complaint was too many tangents in the story. It could of been edited down by about 25%. Also so many characters! Who's on first? Lost track and glazed over a few times.
Nevertheless I look forward to the next installment.

This book surprised me.
Black Fire was way better than I had bothered to hope for when downloading it. The story and the characters are all well written and developed. My one gripe is the pacing and chapter structure. It bounces between different characters and places every page or two instead of every chapter. It would be better if it was much less frequent.

Hammering his way ever closer while combating corrupt police and murderous gangsters, Black wages war on an army of mercenaries and international sex traffickers controlled by a psychopath who wants the girl for his own.

A major accomplishment and a new stellar hero to follow!
Author William Kely McClung is also a photography artist, screenwriter, filmmaker, and martial arts champion. In everything he creates his works support his theme of ‘People are worse than anything we can make up, but of course, can be better than anything we imagine.’ The scope of his influence in the arts is impressive, and now he adds to his repertoire BLACK FIRE, the initial volume of a promised series, a novel that is infused with his gifts as the opening of this story supports - ‘ “He has a talent for violence.” What the hell was that supposed to mean? The specificity of words was interesting…No propensity or tendency. Talent!...Coming from a psychiatrist who interviewed him twice as a child and added as a footnote on the second report…It wasn’t something he tried to have anymore than he tried to have blue eyes of a thick shock of black hair…’ In a unique manner McClung creates a hero, both visually and psychologically and the story is launched.
Distilling the action, the author offers the life and adventures of Major Tommy Black who is ‘at the crossroads of a brilliant, clandestine career. His life in black ops sealed in buried records and the whispered stories of his violent exploits. Lost… without purpose or mission. But when the daughter of a fallen comrade is kidnapped, Black unleashes all of his military experience and fury in a race across the world to save her.

While converging 1000-year storms clash above them, Black sacrifices all for the nearly impossible chance to save the girl... and maybe his soul.’
McClung’s writing is cinematic (not surprisingly!) and his gift for creating significant characters as well as picturesque global atmospheres is stunning. Watch the rise of this major new hero - Tommy Black - likely headed for a motion picture in stance with Reacher and Bourne! Excellent writing from a Pro. Very highly recommended
