    All, Top rated thriller author Mark Allen just reviewed my recent Novella Old And Angry via Amazon:

    "If you took Clint Eastwood's cranky character from Gran Torino, made him a Vietnam Vet with lethal skills, and then gave him a murder-mystery to solve and some bad guy butts to kick, you'd end up with "Old and Angry." Author Will Brink's first-person narrative expertly captures the gruff, no-nonsense, "get off my lawn or I'll kick your tailbone out the top of your skull" voice of door-kicking, meat-eating, whisky-drinking Paul, the "old" protagonist of the story.

    The 'angry' part of the tale comes around when Paul and his ex-SEAL pal Jake find out what kind of dirty business some Russian gangsters are really up to and decide that the only way to handle the situation is the old-school warrior way, with generous helpings of C4, frag grenades, and hot lead. The author shows here that he really knows how to write an action sequence, delivering a gritty, you-are-there vibe that means you can practically hear the explosions, see the blood spray, and smell the gunpowder.

    The story may be short, but it packs a mean punch, like a rock-knuckled uppercut right to the chin. This one's got a wicked, cutthroat edge, and should be right up the literary alley of anyone who enjoys violent, action-packed, hard-boiled thrillers.

    This review just up from Best Selling Action-Thriller Author of the Team Reaper series, Mark Allen.

    A rock 'em, sock 'em, run 'n' gun ride

    Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2020

    "Buckle up for a wild, bumpy, rock-'em-sock-'em ride when a black ops trigger-puller's vacation goes sour--er, south--and he has to run 'n' gun his way through Panama City. Author Will Brinks immerses you into the tactical mindset of a covert operator with the literary skill and writing expertise of someone who's "been there, done that." The narrative reads authentic, which is no easy thing to pull off in this modern age when everyone raised on Rambo and Chuck Norris movies thinks they know how special forces warriors behave.

    This novella packs more action into its brisk pages than most books three times its length. The zinger-twist at the very end sets up a sweet hook for the next entry in the series and you'll be One-Clicking that bad boy onto your Kindle faster than a MAC-10 empties its magazine on full-auto.

    Bottom line, this is edgy, high-octane, rocket-fueled entertainment.

    ������ New REVIEWS ������

    Mark Allen, Best Selling Action-Thriller Author of the Team Reaper series, had this to say about Part III of my VGS series:

    "I read through this rapid fire-paced novella faster than a bullet blows through brain matter. The first-person narration of "Wink," our trigger-puller protagonist, is jam packed with sharp insights into the minds of spec-ops warriors as well as hilarious rants that truly make it seem like he is speaking directly to the reader.

    The story picks up right after the events of the second entry ("Welcome to the Jungle") and quickly slaps on additional plot layers, including a late-twist cliffhanger ending that'll have you scrambling to get the next book in front of your eyes.

    If you have an affinity for hardcore action heroes who take no crap and are perfectly willing to shoot bad guys in the face to accomplish their objectives, then the Vacation Gone South series should be your literary cup of whiskey-and-gunpowder-laced tea.

    Seriously, give this series a shot.
