7.0 / 10 average from 2 rated reviews

Death squad. There's a brutal new player in the Middle East- a mysterious group of radicalized assassins unleashing havoc. When a U.S. envoy is slaughtered, Mack Bolan picks up the hunt in the Afghan mountains, the first leg of a mission to stem the flow of spilled blood across a shattered region ... and the world. In a sophisticated undercover operation that spans the borderlands and urban battlefields of Iraq, Pakistan and India, Bolan and a handful of operatives attempt to do the impossible: find and terminate the revitalized Islamic murder cult. Reborn from an ancient sect, the group merges ancient terror with modern technology. As dealers of death for the hard line ruling Mullahs, the Council of Assassins plots a new global caliphate ... with a calculated first strike aimed at the heart of the United States.

Nice entry with ties going back to Rogers' masterpiece Lethal Tribute. Bolan is on the trail of what seems like Taliban operatives, but there's more than meets the eye. As in previous books, Bolan has a special team of allies, all of which shine brightly. From the Afghan, Ous, to the psycho female assassin, Bolan and Co. inch closer to the ultimate terrorist act. Pretty good action, and character interactions made this an enjoyable read.

Can you trust the violet eye? You’ll have to read your way through Kali’s sweetness, limb lopping and strangulation to find out. Assassin’s Code is a great ride of Mack against assassins joining forces for a single outcome. Great characters join forces with Bolan, Ous, a pipe smoking soldier-for-life has the gift of gab yet has a no holds barred attitude and but loves and protects his family and Ken-san, a real ninja with sense of humor. Bolan also gets to do some great role camouflage and infiltration into the enemy lair, something we haven’t seen to this level in a long time. Enjoy.
