author : Richard BardRichard Bard draws on his own experiences as a former USAF pilot and cancer survivor to craft compelling characters who risk it all for love and loyalty. Born in Munich, Germany, to American parents, he joined the United States Air Force like his father. But he left the service when he was diagnosed with cancer and learned he had only months to live. He earned a management degree from the University of Notre Dame and ran three successful companies involving advanced security products used by US embassies and governments worldwide. Now a full-time writer, he lives in Redondo Beach, California, with his wife and remains in excellent health.\n\nHis bestselling Brainrush series has garnered over 2,000 Amazon 5-Star reviews. It’s a story about second chances, and embracing every day of your life as though it’s your last. Called “A terrifically entertaining thriller” by Publishers Weekly, Book-1 of the series was named the Wall Street Journal #1 Action/Adventure in their Guide to Self Published Big Sellers, while Book-2 held a death grip at the top of the Amazon Top-Rated (best reviewed) Mystery/Thrillers list for 10 straight months. This set the stage for the blockbuster release of Book-3, which Booklist called “A non-stop, high octane adventure,” Book-4, which Kirkus named “A high-speed espionage thriller that will have readers impatiently waiting for the next installment,” and Book-5, which IndieReader.com heralded as “One of the best books of 2014!” The final two books of the series will be released in the Fall of 2017.\n View more >>
