Book Description
In beautiful Hawaii, the Executioner opens a volcanic war in the Pacific Mack Bolan stands at the lip of Puowaina, the Hawaiian war cemetery, and pays tribute to the friends he lost in Vietnam. Since he left the jungle, this crack sniper has been fighting a different war—an endless battle against organized crime that he knows will someday end in his death. He is in Hawaii on a mission, and that mission is murder. He starts by firing a series of sniper rounds into the palatial apartment of the Hawaiian heroin king. As Bolan watches the local mob try to pick up the pieces, he begins hearing rumors of another capo: the mysterious King Fire. There is a conspiracy lurking beneath the surface of this beautiful chain of islands—a fiendish plot that stretches to the farthest reaches of the Pacific. Hawaiian Hellground is the 22nd book in the Executioner series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Book Description
Outside Seattle, the Executioner discovers a Mafia plot to dominate the world On a remote island in Puget Sound, a millionaire’s house has been sold to the mob. The dock has been lengthened, security has been tightened, and men with guns have been scattered across the shore. Late on a moonlit night a figure in black drops in from the sky. He is Mack Bolan, the Executioner, whose one-man war against organized crime has carried him to Seattle. He will not like what he finds. Beneath the main house, Bolan discovers a sprawling underground bunker being dug into solid rock. This is the Mafia’s newest firebase—a fortified compound from which to control shipping traffic across the Pacific Ocean. If the mob can control shipping, it has a chance to control the world, unless Bolan finds a way to push this island fortress back into the sea. Firebase Seattle is the 21st book in the Executioner series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Book Description
Introducing “action adventure icon” Mack Bolan as he wages a one-man war against the Mafia—in the first three books of the million-selling series (Los Angeles Times). In the jungles of Southeast Asia, no sniper was more ruthless than Mack Bolan. After twelve years in-country, with ninety-five confirmed kills, the Special Forces sergeant returns to the United States only to find that his father has gone berserk, slaughtering his family before taking his own life. But Bolan knows his old man was no killer: He was under pressure from a gang of Mafia thugs who were after his money—and willing to destroy his life to get it. For the sake of his father, Bolan declares war on the men who drove him mad . . . Now in one volume, these are the first three action-packed novels in the long-running series that has sold more than 200 million copies. If you’re a fan of Rambo, James Bond, or Jack Reacher, it’s time to meet the one and only Mack Bolan—an elite operative with a haunted past pitted against legions of mobsters no one else can take down.

Book Description
Rough justice has often been served in the pages of serial novels, notably beginning with Don Pendleton's The Executioner in 1969. This is the first overview of the serial vigilante genre, which featured such hard-boiled protagonists as Nick Carter, Mark Stone, Jake Brand and Able Team among the 130 series that followed Pendleton's novel. Serial vigilantes repeatedly take the law into their own hands, establishing and imposing their own moral standards, usually by force. The book examines the connections between the serial vigilante and the pulp hero that preceded him and how the serial vigilante has influenced a variety of tough guys, private eyes, spies and cops in different media. A complete bibliography for each series is featured.

Book Description
Employing hitherto closed access to the histories of several publishing houses, this is an investigation of the action-adventure novel, chronicling the rise and fall of small enterprises which first saw the potential in such an approach to fiction. It focuses first on the creations of Don Pendleton, tracing his 38-book series The Executioner, and examining the evolution of the series under a growing number of writers. The study also includes a commentary on the many Mack Bolan imitators.
