Author Brad Taylor

He's played for the world's greatest forces. Now the world reads his thriller novels. From the iHeart Radio Studio I'm Unplugged and Totally Uncut with author Brad Taylor Taylor’s novels feature series characters Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill, part of the top secret extra-legal unit called The Taskforce, created to contain terrorist plots and global threats—some of which have proven scarily prophetic. In the past two years, Taylor has correctly predicted the threat of Chechen terrorists, the risks of independent contractors leaking US intelligence (a la Edward Snowden), and attacks by Boko Haram, by writing about them before they happened. Even some of the technology Brad gave his fictional Taskforce is now in development. In fact, he is so knowledgeable that he fully researches and plans an operation for his fictional Taskforce as well as the terrorists in each novel, but during the editing process he inserts red herrings to make sure neither can be replicated. In a recent review of No Fortunate Son, Booklist raved, "Taylor has become the heir apparent to the late Vince Flynn." This is high praise for any author, but it’s not surprising praise for Taylor. About the Author: Brad Taylor is the New York Times bestselling author of six previous Pike Logan novels. He served for more than twenty years in the US Army, including eight years in 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta, commonly known as Delta Force. He retired as a Special Forces lieutenant colonel and now lives in Charleston, SC.
