My print copy of Night of the Bonfire by Kevin Scott Olson was given to me as part of a giveaway done by the author.
Kevin Scott Olson has created an action/adventure in the truest sense with Michael Quinn. Night of the Bonfire is the second book I have read featuring this character and I am hooked. Great action/adventure, suspense, fast cars, fast women, sleazy bad guys; they're all here.
Quinn is the cool tough guy hero in the mold of James Bond, Dirk Pitt, Roland Deschain, Jason Bourne, Bernard Samson, and Ryan Cawdor to name a few. I think the character of Michael Quinn could enjoy a run comparable to Cawdor given the type of story line author Olson employs.
In true hero fashion, Quinn gets his butt kicked, then kicks bad guy butt, completes the mission, gets the girl, and generally saves the day. Along the way he has all the fun toys to play with. At times things get to looking pretty bad for our hero, but in the back of our minds we know he will come through okay (I mean come on, it's his book after all!)
Night of the Bonfire is good escapist reading. Is it War and Peace ? No, but we already have one of those.
So, if you want to kick back with a fun, exciting read, you'll get that with Kevin Scot Olson's newest Michael Quinn action/adventure Night of the Bonfire. Enjoy!
Mike
