Brad Taylor’s expertise stems from more than twenty years of experience in the US Army Special Forces, including eight years in 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment–Delta. Because of his background and up-to-date tactical and operational knowledge, Taylor has become a trusted expert for breaking news on FOX, MSNBC, Newsmax and Al Jazeera, commenting on stories as diverse as the Charlie Hebdo attack, ISIS, the Sony hack, the death of Osama Bin Laden, and Tom Clancy.

In just six years, Taylor has written ten thrillers featuring series characters Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill, part of the top secret extra-legal unit called The Taskforce, created to contain terrorist plots and global threats. Whether the threat is foreign or domestic, ISIS, Boko Haram, or radicalized American youth, the reader always gets the sense that Taylor’s plots could, and in some cases have, come true.

Join Brad Taylor on January 9th as he discusses his eleventh book, RING OF FIRE, where Pike and Jennifer come face-to-face with an insidious threat to strike terror into the heart of America, coinciding with the fifteenth anniversary of 9/11.

What makes reading this bestselling author’s novels a little frightening is also what makes him a well-respected and critically-acclaimed writer—the terrorist plots are stunningly realistic, and very often, terrifyingly accurate. As Booklist says: “Taylor is one of the best in the Vince Flynn line of military thrillers featuring covert operations, and he has the eerie ability to predict real-world headlines. And, somehow, he just keeps getting better and better.”
