Rated 5 starsYou'll want to read them all!
As usual in the Hawke series, Ted Bell takes two diverse plots, seemingly totally unrelated, and then weaves the threads together until he has created what you could almost call a 'tapestry' of suspense and adventure and thrills. No other modern thriller author even comes close. And I've spent a decade reading them all. If Bell has a rival (and he does of course) it would have to be a Fleming or a Ludlum, even an Alastair...

Rated 5 starsJames Bond has NOTHING on Alex Hawke...
For those quickly making a decision on whether or not Warlord is worth purchasing, just ask yourself this: Have I read Ted Bells earlier Alex Hawke novels & did I like/love them?

Rated 5 starsAnother Terrific Ted Bell Page Turner
I've read several Alex Hawke books from Ted Bell and I've enjoyed each one. WARLORD was particularly engaging and held my attention from the opening page until the final one.

Rated 5 starsIf you like James Bond, you'll love this.
Ted Bell doesn't write books that are less than entertaining. His latest, Warlord may be his best yet. Literate, suspenseful with a good dollop of humor thrown in. Alex Hawke, the heir apparent to James Bond, is drowning in a sea of rum and self destruction when he gets a call from Prince Charles. The good Prince has reason to believe his life, if not the British monarchy, are being threatened. This is the catalyst to set...
