Sam Durell : Assignment Suicide - Edward S. Aarons


What a great Lou Feck cover, with I am sure, Steve Holland as the model for Sam.
These books are so Damn good... you have to read one. Aarons has a great turn of phrase and he calls the action in a way that has you there. There are 48 books in the series with a bunch of great covers. The stories follow a CIA agent, Sam Durell. He is a bad SOB and I think Trevanian must have read these. Johnathon Hemlock rolls up a magazine in the Loo Sanction and beats the shit out of a guy with it... Sam Durell has this technique down to a science. Find some of the books and check one out. I promise you if you like action in a bond theme on a world wide scale with evil babes and snarling villains who want to hurt all the nice people. Sam takes care of it .
