AUDIBLE HAS RELEASED THE AUDIO EDITION OF BURKE’S REVENGE – BOOK 3 OF THE BOB BURKE ACTION-ADVENTURE THRILLER SERIES, MAKING THE ENTIRE SERIES NOW AVAILABLE FOR LISTENING AS WELL AS IN KINDLE E-BOOK AND AMAZON PAPERBACK

Bob Burke is back… again, in Book #3. A former sniper, Army Ranger, and Delta Force commander, he’s retired to his farm outside Fort Bragg, North Carolina for some peace and quiet. But when a home-grown ISIS cell forms in Fayetteville and begins striking the Special Operations leadership and command structure inside Fort Bragg itself, in Delta’s own backyard, it’s time to strike back.

Undersized, underestimated, and now a telecommunications company executive, he is often dismissed as simply the “phone guy,” but as his former Delta sergeants will attest, whether he’s carrying a .50-caliber Barrett sniper rifle, a tactical knife, or just his bare hands, he is one of the most lethal killing machines the US Government ever produced. Here’s the Link:

Terrorism explodes on American shores in this FBI counter-terror thriller. A shadowy Hamas legend is on a blood hunt, and his target is the President of the United States. Smart, skilled, and determined, he is a rogue lone-wolf ─ the FBI and Secret Service’s worst nightmare. The only thing that stands in his way is one smart-ass rogue FBI agent, a cerebral Egyptian security agent, and a hard-edged, female Mossad agent. When he strikes, he will unleash a firestorm that will decapitate the US government and kill dozens of international leaders on national television. From the White House to Newark New Jersey, from Beirut to Tel-Aviv, and to the grassy fields of an old Colonial Battlefield in Virginia, can their dysfunctional alliance hold together long enough to stop Al-Bari before they kill each other.

Looking for a good beach book or something to tide you over through the lockdown? This fast-moving conspiracy thriller is from the author of Burke’s Gamble, Burke’s War, Burke’s Revenge, and Burke’s Samovar, as well as The Undertaker, Amongst My Enemies, Thursday at Noon, and Winner Lose All has over 700 Kindle 5-Star Reviews. Enjoy! Bill Brown

THURSDAY AT NOON: Treachery and double-dealing are the rule in this spy vs spy thriller. A dead Mossad agent, Nazi rocket scientists, the Moslem Brotherhood, a corrupt American ambassador, and two missing Egyptian tank regiments – somebody’s trying to start another Arab-Israeli war.

Check It Out here

Richard Thomson is a burnt-out CIA agent who the Agency dumped in Egypt because they couldn’t think of a worse place to send him. Already gnawed on by Langley and set-up by the Cairo police, his day can’t get much worse, until someone leaves a dead body on the rear steps of his hotel with its head lopped off like a ripe melon.

A message? No doubt about it. The body belongs to Mahmoud Yussuf, a fat, petty thief and wannabe spy who is peddling photographs of a long-abandoned RAF base in the Egyptian desert.

While the world focuses on Russian missiles in Cuba, no one notices the ones being rolled out in the Egyptian desert pointed at Israel, no one, except Thomson.

Alone and on the run, no one believes his story — not the CIA, the US Ambassador, and most

assuredly not Captain Hassan Saleh, Chief of the Homicide Bureau of the Cairo Police, who

wants to hang Thomson for murder.

Like Night of the Generals, this is a murder mystery wrapped inside an international political thriller. Tick Toc, Tick Toc, it’s all going to start at Noon on Thursday, unless Thompson can stop them.

This Cold War spy thriller will sweep you back to when John Kennedy was in the White House, Nikita Khrushchev ruled the Kremlin, and Abdel, Gamal Nasser sat precariously in Cairo, threatened by the radical Islamist fringe of the Moslem Brotherhood.

If you’re looking for a good beach book or something to curl up with in front of the fire, this fast-moving conspiracy thriller is from the author of Burke’s Revenge, Burke’s Gamble, Burke’s War, The Undertaker, Amongst My Enemies, Winner Lose All and Aim True, My Brothers, with over 500 Kindle 5-Star Reviews. Enjoy!

Bob Burke is back… again!

After his recent adventures in Burke’s War and Burke’s Gamble, all this former sniper, Army Ranger, and Delta Force commander wants is to settle down on his North Carolina farm and let Iraq, Afghanistan, and his recent ‘dustups’ with the Chicago and New York mobs fade away like bad memories.

But sometimes you go looking for trouble, and sometimes trouble comes looking for you. When a home-grown ISIS cell strikes the Special Operations leadership inside Fort Bragg itself, in Delta’s own backyard, it’s time for some serious payback and a taste of revenge.

When C-4 takes out a close friend and one of their own, it falls to the ‘Merry Men of Sherwood Forest’ -– Bob Burke, Ace Randall, a female CID agent, the Geeks, a maverick helicopter pilot, and a large pit-cat to even the score before the terrorists strike an even more important US military target only 200 miles away.

Chapter 1 of My Next Book — My Writing Blog #4

April 30, 2016 by William F. Brown

Chapter 1 of My Next Book-I have been busily working away (well, not all that busily) on book #3 in the Bob Burke action thriller novels, following on the heels of Burke’s Gamble which came out on March 1 of this year. The new book has a working title of Burke’s Revenge. I am far enough along to have some confidence in the direction, and if posted Chapter 1 on my webpage, http://box5462.temp.domains/~billbro4 under the tab in the header labeled Burke’s Revenge – Coming

Chapter 1, Book Reviews — William F Brown

Soon. Bob Burke is not appeared in the story yet. Chapter 1 in the first draft of every other chapter thereafter is the hardest to write. It deals with one of the bad guys. Take a look and let me know what you think.

As you may or may not be able to tell, I’ve also been making considerable “under the hood” changes to my website, with the help of the staff of Booknook.Biz, my text processors, advisers, magicians, and so many other things. I think we are about done now. Websites, like virtually all social media and promotional work can be big time eaters and distractions if you let them. Like proofreading and grammar, there’s no escaping them in this era of self-publishing.

I learned long ago, however, that the only real way to find more readers and sell more books is to write more books, which is why I’m grinding away on Burke’s Revenge.

The Heist – Book Review – Daniel Silva’s spy novel

April 26, 2015 by William F. Brown

The Heist – Daniel Silva’s Gabriel Allon stories are always entertaining and he’s one of the best writer of spy novels in the business, but I’m beginning to have three bones to pick with his story telling. First, too many of his books have the same “let’s get her alone and talk her into betraying her boss and her country” scenes. Second, Allon is becoming the Hamlet of Jerusalem. And third, his endings — this one

in particular – are wholly unsatisfactory. Who would go to all that trouble, have $8 Billion in hand, enough to ruin the Assad regime, and just walk away and let him stay in place. If I were his boss, I’d fire him. The end of the Heist needs to build to a more significant climax than that. Still, I gave it 4 Stars and intend to read the next one.

The Colonel’s Mistake by Dan Mayland – Book Review

June 25, 2014 by William F. Brown

The Colonel’s Mistake by Dan Mayland , is the first book in a three book series featuring Mark Sava, the aging, low key, former CIA Station Chief in Azerbaijan in former Soviet Central Asia. You can’t get much more backwater than that. Sava has stayed on as a consultant living in Baku, the country’s hot, dusty, corrupt capital. He gets dragged into a friend’s kidnapping, an attempted coup in Iran, and a proposed Chinese oil pipeline. Think George Smiley, not James Bond or Mitch Rapp. Like the rest of the countries in that area,

Suspense Thriller
by William F. Brown

Azerbaijan has become a pawn in the 21st Century version of “the Great Game” of oil, international politics, intrigue, corruption, and espionage between Russia, Iran, China, and the US. With twists, flips, and turns, that is the real life screen upon which Mayland’s The Colonel’s Mistake thriller novel project. I have no doubt that his complex, seamy, and corrupt picture of the region is spot on, as I have no doubt that our current State Department wizards don’t begin understand any of it. Too bad the wizards in Washington never read history or even Rudyard Kipling. Any of that could have kept us out of a number of recent wars from Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Series books are very much in vogue these days. which makes a book review difficult. I usually dislike them, because I feel they all-too-often cheat the reader. To me, a story should be distinct and complete from cover to cover and not simply a teaser to get the reader to buy yet another book. I don’t know how the next books in Mayland’s series will work out, but after The Colonel’s Mistake, I intend to read more of them.
