As Bolan jumped into the blackness, he thought of that terrible day thirteen years earlier when The Executioner left the war-torn jungles of Vietnam for home, to bury his parents and sister. Now he was returning as Colonel Phoenix, his new incarnation. This time his mission was to infiltrate a secret North Vietnamese prison and rescue a very special American POW. The U.S. Army officer had to be extricated without alerting the maximum security prison, with no clues as to who performed the rescue. . . or why. If the U.S. was implicated, the political and military implications could be disastrous. Other secretly held POWs would be doomed. It seemed an impossible task, even for Mack Bolan. And blood - a lot of it - could be spilled.
Author
Don Pendleton was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, December 12, 1927 and died October 23, 1995 in Arizona. He wrote mystery, action/adventure, science-fiction, crime fiction, suspense, short stories, nonfiction, and was a comic scriptwriter, poet, screenwriter, essayist, and metaphysical scholar. He published more than 125 books in his long career, and his books have been published in more than 25 foreign languages with close to two hundred million copies in print throughout the world. After producing a number of science-fiction and mystery novels, Don launched in 1969 the phenomenal Mack Bolan: The Executioner, which quickly emerged as the original, definitive Action/Adventure series. His successful paperback books inspired a new particularly American literary genre during the early 1970's, and Don became known as "the father of action/adventure." "Although The Executioner Series is far and away my most significant contribution to world literature, I still do not perceive myself as 'belonging' to any particular literary niche. I am simply a storyteller, an entertainer who hopes to enthrall with visions of the reader's own incipient greatness." Don Pendleton's original Executioner Series are now in ebooks, published by Open Road Media. 37 of the original novels. Wikipedia: Don Pendleton
