Presidential Agent Synopsis: By Order of the President is the first book of W.E.B. Griffin’s Presidential Agent series. Somalian terrorists have hijacked a jet and it seems as if they are planning on turning it into a bomb to attack the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia.
The Hostage is the second book of the Presidential Agent novel series. Charley Castillo is baffled by the murder of an American diplomat in Argentina. To make matters worse, his wife has been kidnapped and Secret Service agents are being attacked.
I have read the blurb on Amazon about Rogue Assets and there is a Pick McCoy mentioned. Is he the grandson of Ken McCoy of The Corps Series since Ken’s son, Pick, was born during the Korean Conflict, I do believe he would be a little long in the tooth to be used in a Presidential Agent mission.
Forget I asked about another Presidential Agent book. I just completed the series and 1 through 7 were good; 8 was good until the end and it did complete to series and the writing was good even if a little on the comic side. At first I thought it was farcical but in the true Farce Genre it was not.
Because I have found no new Presidential Agent books I am rereading the series. I love these books. Is the son going to write another in the series? I surely do hope he will.
When is the next “President Agent” book coming out? Hurry, I love this series>
Will there be a new book soon?
The series seems to be on a pace of about one book every other year (which would mean 2015), but that is just a guess.
