From Booklist In the post-Snowden era, espionage becomes trickier. When the ultrasecret counterterrorism unit called Taskforce tracks a radical Islamist Nigerian in Europe, it finds itself a target. Two of its members are killed, and Pike Logan is after whoever is responsible. But first Taskforce must get a thumb drive with material about the massacre of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics, information that could incriminate the current U.S. director of National Intelligence and that MOSSAD agents also are after. As Americans and Israelis join forces, their common enemy is the Russian FSB, whose members are intent on doing damage to the U.S. by using the Nigerian, who has been armed with a dreadful weapon. Adding to the intrigue, Pike discovers a mole deep in the U.S. intelligence apparatus. In this sixth entry in the Pike Logan series, former Delta Force officer Taylor combines up-to-the-minute spy craft with musings about the morality of murder, even when justified, and shows that the latest gadgetry still can’t replace human intuition and skill. Another exciting spy thriller from an author who knows the territory. --Michele Leber
Review “A Pike Logan thriller filled with heart-thumping action and insane heroics...A fun, satisfying adventure.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)“Former Delta Force officer Taylor combines up-to-the-minute spy craft with musings about the morality of murder, even when justified, and shows that the latest gadgetry still can’t replace human intuition and skill. Another exciting spy thriller from an author who knows the territory.”—Booklist“Taylor is adept at combining past tragedies, like the terrorist attack on the 1972 Munich Olympics, with more recent developments, like the Snowden disclosures, and tracking the geopolitical changes in between. Throw in modern technology, gunfights, hand-to-hand combat, and a daring race to prevent a disaster that would make the Munich Olympics attack pale by comparison, and you have a thriller that really thrills.”—Publishers Weekly

Shaking up the series (4.5 stars) By TChris Just when I thought Brad Taylor was running out of gas, telling a story that was too similar to other Taskforce novels, he decided to shake up the series. I won't say what happens, but it triggers the dark rage that Pike Logan thought his team member and lover Jennifer had tamed. The last half of the novel is intense.Two storylines weave together. One involves Russia's FSB, which wants to send a Nigerian terrorist to execute a plan that is intended to damage the United States. The plan is farfetched but I guess I can accept that the FSB might believe it would work. When the FSB creates problems for the Taskforce, Pike Logan and his usual team members travel to Bulgaria to learn what the Nigerian is planning.The other storyline involves Russian intelligence secrets that Mossad is trying to buy. A flash drive holding those secrets contains information that might be embarrassing to the United States government. Pike's team is redirected to recover the flash drive before Mossad can get it. As usual, Pike has his own agenda.Pike pursuing an unauthorized mission of his own is beginning to feel like a formula but, so far, it is a successful formula. And as noted above, Taylor shakes up the formula with a surprising plot twist that forces Pike to realize how much he depends on Jennifer for a sense of balance while forcing Jennifer to realize how living a violent life is changing her in ways she fears.As always, Taylor has a realistic and nuanced view of his heroes and villains. Taylor understands that the Taskforce would be called the "secret police" in other nations. Days of Rage illustrates our "confusing new world" in which allies and enemies are often difficult to distinguish. The tension between the interests of Mossad and those of the United States, as well as a debate about whether endless cycles of killing actually keep people safe, provide some of the novel's most interesting moments. Taylor's point of view is a refreshing break from the simplistic worldviews offered by too many thriller writers. I also appreciate the moral center that Jennifer brings to the story. Of course, the high tech gadgetry, fistfights, and chases are fun too. If I could, I would give Days of Rage 4 1/2 stars.

The clandestine operations of the Task Force are up to their mission (s) in this latest scamper. Starting out in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, the plot quickly thickens. A Nigerian named Usman Akimbo and a member of the Boko Haran, is recruited by the Russians to assist in a sinister plot. A portion of the team will go to Berlin and eventually on to Brazil in search of a lethal weapon of mass destruction.The members of the Oversight Council for the Task Force once again have doubts about the Task Force. A special vote is needed to keep a "green light" on their current ops. Action will intensify with the added inclusion of the Israelis and a mole from long ago.The high tech gadgetry that the team utilized is impressive. And, the skills of the members using improvisation when none is available shows the talent of this Task Force. Jennifer comes to my mind and more than once....Russia's motive for getting the US involved in this fray rings so true - especially with the events in today's world.Personally, I found it to be a fascinating read that was full of high octane energy! The entire novel was action packed on many fronts and the plot was outstanding. I loved the characters on my team and I despised the ones on the other side. The end of the mission in Brazil was a leap of "faith" and I loved that, as well.Most highly recommended.
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Getting better with age... By David T. The Pike Logan series is one that I look forward to each year. The topics are relevant to the current day, and the characters are engaging. I especially liked the Israeli counterparts that were introduced in this book. It provided for a nice change of pace and gave some new working dynamics to the relationships.This was well written, and the action flowed throughout the book as the plot unfolded.The other aspect that I really enjoyed was that the threat was not of Afghani or Middle Eastern Islamic Jihad origins. Brad Taylor did a good job reminding the world that there are other real threats to our safety and security.This was easily one of the top ten books I have read this year.
