MAC WALKER'S PATRIOT OMNIBUS
D.W. Ulsterman - 2014
He protects those he loves with a ferocity and purpose few can overcome. If challenged, he takes a "kill first, question later" approach. His life has taken him around the world and back again, to a home that is no longer his, in a country that would see him dead. He seeks both truth and purpose in himself and others, at a time when the traditions and values of old do battle against the emerging tyranny of the present. He is Mac Walker, and this is his story, spanning decades, available here as a single download for the first time ever, allowing readers to save up to 50% over purchasing each of the Mac Walker stories individually. SEVEN STORIES - ONE LOW PRICE! "Being a 77 year old widow and knowing I would never fall in love again, I'm afraid that Ulsterman's writing has caused me to fall in love with his fictional character, Mac Walker! What a MAN!" -Patricia Tadlock “All of the Mac Walker books are great! Once you start reading, you cannot put them down! If I could meet any character of any book, it would be Mac Walker!” --Lyn R.
