Following a suicide bombing in central London, series SAS hero Danny Black is recruited to be part of an assassination squad, directed by a joint MI5/MI6/CIA committee and tasked with hunting down and killing the terrorist cells believed to be planning further atrocities. Early leads take them to a North London mosque and a one-armed hate cleric, whom the Home Secretary repeatedly tries and fails to expel from the country, a sleazy Saudi prince living in a Park Lane Hotel - on the surface a devout Muslim, he devotes himself to booze, drugs and hookers as soon as his family are out of the building - and a grizzled ex-Regiment guy who is spreading rumours that Diana was assassinated by the SAS in the tunnel in Paris because of her Arab lover. The trail of clues takes Danny to a training camp in the Yemen, but just as he has the enemy in his sights, he discovers that they are somehow one step ahead of him, and he begins to suspect that they are being topped off by someone close to home.… (meer)

There are so many books of this genre out there to read, but most fall apart within just a few pages. I stumbled on Chris Ryan after binge watching Strike Back Season 1 and noting the TV series was based on a novel by Chris Ryan, so I went looking to see what all he had written, and discovered the mother lode of special forces fiction novels. Even so, I've been disappointed so many times and I wasn't very hopeful, therefore I intentionally picked a book at random and not the first in the series. Hunter Killer (Book 2 of Danny Black series) was fantastic. Excellent writing, excellent story, realistic characters with everything to love in an action novel including political intrigue, excellent villains (backstabbing politicians, terrorists...) believable weapons and tactics.
Oh yeah, and best of all absolutely **NO** political correctness or pandering. Period. (love, love love it...).

I'm looking forward to going back and reading book 1 in the series (Masters of War) and after that everything else Chris has written. Books of this genre I've enjoyed as much as Hunter Killer include: Levon's Night by Chuck Dixon, Without Remorse by Tom Clancy, Term Limits by Vince Flynn and Fade by Kyle Mills. (
