Pike Logan is back with his friends and once again he has to work around the oversight commitee, but this time Wolfe will help them。 End of Days by Brad Taylor is one of the better ones in this series and the character development is going great。 This time it's his Isralian friends that needs help。 We also have to deal with a great character in an Italian police officer。 I prefer the early books in the series but Taylor is a master at describing places around the world, it could be because of al Pike Logan is back with his friends and once again he has to work around the oversight commitee, but this time Wolfe will help them。 End of Days by Brad Taylor is one of the better ones in this series and the character development is going great。 This time it's his Isralian friends that needs help。 We also have to deal with a great character in an Italian police officer。 I prefer the early books in the series but Taylor is a master at describing places around the world, it could be because of all his travel and research。 He always has a good flow in his writing。 If you have missed his books I recommend that you amend this by start reading them at once。 I must thank @this_is_edelweiss @harpercollins and @williammorrowbooks for giving me this advance copy and @bradtaylorbooks for writing this stuff。 。。。more

Taskforce operators Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill have been trapped in Charleston, South Carolina during COVID-19, so when Aaron and Shoshana show up on their doorstep with Israeli passports and a new mission, they jump at the chance to assist their friends。 I love this series and reading about Pike and Jennifer for the 16th time feels like visiting old friends。 I think the character development is the strongest part of this series。 Storywise, this is not the best book in the series but it's st Taskforce operators Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill have been trapped in Charleston, South Carolina during COVID-19, so when Aaron and Shoshana show up on their doorstep with Israeli passports and a new mission, they jump at the chance to assist their friends。 I love this series and reading about Pike and Jennifer for the 16th time feels like visiting old friends。 I think the character development is the strongest part of this series。 Storywise, this is not the best book in the series but it's still a very thrilling and action-packed book as you can expect from Brad Taylor。 It's well-written with a lot of humor in the dialogue。 If you like thrillers then I highly recommend this book。 Thanks to the author, Harper Colllins and Edelweiss for the privilege of reviewing an advanced copy of End of Days。 。。。more

Jeremy,
In the 16th installment starring Pike Logan, a group sets out to try and force the U。S。 and Israel into a war in the Middle East to be the catalyst to The 2nd Coming of Christ depicted in the book of Revelations。 An overwhelming majority of thrillers involving terrorism the last 20 years have featured Islamic extremists。 We often forget other religions have extremists and Taylor deftly reminds us Islam doesn't have a monopoly on crazy。 Compared to other Logan books, End of Days is light on the a In the 16th installment starring Pike Logan, a group sets out to try and force the U。S。 and Israel into a war in the Middle East to be the catalyst to The 2nd Coming of Christ depicted in the book of Revelations。 An overwhelming majority of thrillers involving terrorism the last 20 years have featured Islamic extremists。 We often forget other religions have extremists and Taylor deftly reminds us Islam doesn't have a monopoly on crazy。 Compared to other Logan books, End of Days is light on the action。 By a lot。 Taylor took a risk and it paid off brilliantly。 I'm sure the deviation caused him a few sleepless nights。 The best decision of Taylor's writing career has to be creating the Israeli team。 Because of it, he has an almost endless supply of storylines。 The best of the group is Shoshana, who is an enigma wrapped in an enigma。 The juxtaposition between the fearless apex predator with the emotional maturity of teenager is endlessly fascinating。 She just wants to be loved like everyone, yet she's like no one else。 Some how, Taylor continues to improve as a writer and has cemented his self as one of the best of the best。 My sincere thanks to Brad Taylor, William Morrow and Custom House, and Edelweiss for the privilege of reviewing an advanced copy of End of Days。 。。。more
Wilma,
I won this book through Goodreads and like always, Brad Taylor did not disappoint。 The action starts when a former Israeli Head of Intelligence is supposedly killed in an accident。 Then a U。S。 Ambassador is killed with threats of more coming。 As always, they turn to Pike Logan and his team plus two Israeli operatives to get to the bottom of this and prevent any more killings。 An Iranian group has claimed responsibility but there's something else going on。 They discover it's a deranged serial kil I won this book through Goodreads and like always, Brad Taylor did not disappoint。 The action starts when a former Israeli Head of Intelligence is supposedly killed in an accident。 Then a U。S。 Ambassador is killed with threats of more coming。 As always, they turn to Pike Logan and his team plus two Israeli operatives to get to the bottom of this and prevent any more killings。 An Iranian group has claimed responsibility but there's something else going on。 They discover it's a deranged serial killer who is trying to bring on Armageddon and fulfill Bible prophecies and thereby erase the entire Islamic religion。 The killer is a member of the Knights of Malta and he plays on the religious and political split between Israel and the rest of the Middle East。 The U。S。 is desperate to stop him before he causes another World War III。 。。。more
Brent,
Another great read from Taylor! Thank you Goodreads for the opportunity to read the advance reader's edition。 If you have enjoyed the missions with Aaron and Shoshana, you'll love this as well。 With the US shut down due to covid, Pike and Jennifer travel overseas to help their friends。 A good mix of Middle East politics and religion and always plenty of action。 Can be read alone, but check out the rest of the series if you haven't。 Another great read from Taylor!

William Halstead Jr。,
I won this book from a Goodreads giveaway。 This was my first time reading Taylor and the Pike series although it has been on my list。 I loved this book。 It was action packed with comedy thrown in for good measure。 I couldn’t put it down。 I will definitely be checking out the rest of the series now!
Maggies Daisy,
History has had its biggest bloodiest wars over religion so it was easy to buy into the story that was well worth the time to read。 The characters are familiar to each other from previous novels in the Pike Logan series but that made the team seem more like family than co-workers in the fight against the bad guys or gals。 Equal opportunity all the way。 The story if you have not figured it out from the title is about the "End of Days" as described in the Bible and a quite twisted villain who stay History has had its biggest bloodiest wars over religion so it was easy to buy into the story that was well worth the time to read。 The characters are familiar to each other from previous novels in the Pike Logan series but that made the team seem more like family than co-workers in the fight against the bad guys or gals。 Equal opportunity all the way。 The story if you have not figured it out from the title is about the "End of Days" as described in the Bible and a quite twisted villain who stays one step ahead of the team leaving dead bodies in his wake from Italy to Iran。 Many good action scenes, knowledgeable with details about the fancy military equipment used made it even more realistic。 。。。more
Pop,
I won this in a Goodreads Giveaway。 My first Brad Taylor book。 Didn’t know I had won it until I got it in the mail。 It is a paper back “Advance Readers Edition (Not for Sale)。 The first few chapters are really confusing with a lot of characters representing different good (Israeli Mossad and American Taskforce) and bad endeavors (Iranian Hezbollah and a deep underground outfit called The Turtles with the Knights of Malta, a Catholic humanitarian organization dating back hundred of years。 Even th I won this in a Goodreads Giveaway。 My first Brad Taylor book。 Didn’t know I had won it until I got it in the mail。 It is a paper back “Advance Readers Edition (Not for Sale)。 The first few chapters are really confusing with a lot of characters representing different good (Israeli Mossad and American Taskforce) and bad endeavors (Iranian Hezbollah and a deep underground outfit called The Turtles with the Knights of Malta, a Catholic humanitarian organization dating back hundred of years。 Even the Italian Police get in on the dig。I could hardly put it down。 Pike Logan, the main character, is the real deal, and so are the American Taskforce and Israeli allies (Aaron & Shoshana)。 The story takes place in the mist of Covid-19。 A real action packed thriller。 America's President Hannister in the book has more balls than Biden and his group of incompetent military advisors, especially Milley。 My favorite quote from the book is "Politics have always been the death of people。" Great read。 。。。more
Kerry Mann,
I was lucky enough to win an arc thru Goodreads and the book won’t be out until early January。 What I will say is preorder now! If you are a fan of Pike and Jennifer this book won’t let you down。 If you enjoy thrillers and have never read any Brad Taylor books start now with One Rough Man and you’ll be caught up with this one comes out! Enjoy!!
Jean,
Well written and the action never stops - easy to read and follow as it takes you to different countries with twist & turns - Interesting thriller of a deranged fanatic wanting to start WWIII。。。。。。Awarded this copy from goodreads for an honest review and I have found a new author。 This is part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone。
