Rex Dalton K9 Thrillers Box Set Two: Payback (The Rex Dalton Series Boxset Book 2) Kindle Edition

by JC Ryan (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 1,544 ratings
Three missions. One relentless pursuit of justice. A lone warrior and his dog take on the world.

Ex–black ops agent Rex Dalton and his trusted companion, Digger, return in this heart-pounding collection of international thrillers packed with betrayal, covert operations, and deadly secrets. From the chaos of a tsunami-stricken Thailand to the treacherous heights of the Andes and the sun-soaked shores of Vanuatu, Rex confronts enemies who stop at nothing—and confronts the ghosts of his past along the way.

Book 3 – Sideswiped
A massive tsunami hits. The woman Rex cares about vanishes. As the clock ticks down, Rex races through a deadly web of extortion and family secrets to bring her back—before it's too late.

Book 4 – The Inca Con
High in the Peruvian Andes, what starts as a goodwill expedition turns deadly. When a charming con man and a terrorist group target an innocent couple, Rex and Digger must outsmart them all and protect a village caught in the crossfire.

Book 5 – The French Girl
A beautiful French aide with a dangerous secret disappears without a trace. Accused of her murder, Rex must uncover an international conspiracy before it destroys not only her—but everything he stands for.

What readers are saying about the Rex Dalton Series:

Sheila LS - Top Contributor. Can't Read This Series Fast Enough!! I had no idea these books were so good when I first started or I would not have already downloaded other Kindle Unlimited books... I haven't read any series as exciting as Ty Patterson's Warrior series until now.

You really need to start reading this series from the beginning because what happened to Rex in this first book is what made him the way he is. He is a very determined person and does not stop at anything to take down the bad guys--especially if they are terrorist or if it is a group that is funding terrorist. Even though this is his main mindset, he still wants to protect the innocent that inadvertently get in the way...

Texas - This author belongs on the same shelf as Ludlum and Follette and those other guys! My first read by this author and I couldn't put the book down! Mesmerized by the writing style, the vivid descriptions and the storylines, I read without stopping. Fast paced, action packed and interesting on several facets.

Margaret Bentley - I love reading about Rex Dalton's exploits, but my favorite character has to be Digger, his military-trained super-intelligent dog.

Greg D - Rex Dalton was the deadliest agent the government had at their disposal- a one-man unstoppable force in the war on terrorism in the Middle East. With his famous ability to pick up new languages with ease, he figures he can blend into almost any culture and root out evil. What could go wrong? Well, it turns out, plenty.

E. I. HOOD - I was not a fan of the first Rex Dalton book but plunged ahead with the second hoping JC Ryan would not disappoint. I loved it. Now here I am after reading the third book in this series. I had a hard time putting it down and found myself wondering about it when I was not reading.

40 year pioneer - Each book in this series gets even better. This has a fascinating, even though hard to fathom, plot, worked out in intricate detail. Rex Dalton is a mirror of all of us - overcoming seemingly overwhelming odds to achieve great things.

Kindle Customer - From a master storyteller comes another thrilling ride by Rex Dalton. From the sands of Afghanistan to the culture of India the story moves at a breathless pace. Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended.

Kindle Customer - Rex Dalton rocks! Another great read from JC Ryan. I've read all of his books and am never disappointed! All I can say is....MORE!

    4.0 out of 5 stars 4 stars slowly dimming - the series is wearing out
    Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2020
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This series is good with the combination of the author's interest in history and the development of Rex Dalton and his compatriots. However as the series progresses the backstory repetition gets to be more and more as well as the actual history which becomes more like filler than relevant to the story line.

    For example Rex goes someplace to follow a lead, there is a whole chapter on the history of the place, and then a sentence or two that the lead does not pan out. This gets much, much worse in the next series (Books 7 - 9) where over half the book is either history or recycled backstory - and by recycled I mean 'cut and paste' . One hopes that the author would invest a modest effort in using fresh language for necessary backstory.

    Having said this I think this particular series is worth 4 stars, even if they are dimming.

    JC Ryan's Rex Dalton Thrillers #4 - 6 boxset is a great read! Just as thrillers #1 - 3 deliver, so do these 3 books. If you want a series filled with interesting global locations, mysteries, and circumstances, adventures, danger, a variety of characters, and main characters (1 human/1 canine) you an get behind, this is the one. I am looking forward to reading the next books in this series.

    Three good solid well written stories set in different parts of the world. Rex and Digger doing their thing righting wrongs and bringing justice to those who deserve it, no quarter for the bad guys and lots of help for those who need it. In Thailand he foils crooked politicians to rescue Sunstra (Girl with beautiful eyes) and leave her to pursue her career to improve politics in Thailand then off to Peru in the guise of an archaeological blogger to save a couple from a con and a village from radiation poisoning. Finally rescuing a girl from Russian oligarch and French politicians (what is it with these politicians ?) in a story which could have ended sooner if the Russians weren't such gluttons for punishment. Digger is definitely the hero in these stories and always gets his man and the ladies love him.
