In 1973, Don Pendleton had this to say about the writing in his
very successful original The Executioner: Mack Bolan Series of Action/Adventure: "The books are narrated as the closest
thing to docudrama, with an authoritative third-person objective viewpoint
occasionally shifting into stream of consciousness via Bolan and other
characters. The emphasis is to explain
the action as an approving, historical account in a stirring presentation, and
to dimension as much as possible the violent activities of the hero."
"Styling of the Mack Bolan stories requires a structure
for carrying fast-paced hard-hitting action sequences. The writing is punchy, declarative,
stirringly graphic. The reach is toward
the reader’s belly, designed to evoke visceral response and rousing empathy. This is 'heroic' fiction."
Open Road Media will release ebooks of 37 Original
