Steck, Ryan

Steck (author of the Matthew Redd thrillers) continues the swashbuckling style of Bell, successfully juggles several plotlines, and lovingly details weapons and cars in what he aptly terms Hawke’s “globe-trotting, England-saving escapades.” Hints of James Bond, Indiana Jones, and even Tom Swift will help blur readers’ disbelief, as the action never stops. Fans of the series will approve.
