[Urban’s] writing is the tight, concise, no-nonsense styling of thriller fiction that you would expect, favoring plot over character, so fans of the tradition are certain to be enthralled from page one. I found the true gem in Osama’s Skull to be the slightly reimagined speculative aspect, and the political reflection that Urban’s work gives to modern-day attitudes on terror…. The world we live in today is truly dangerous, and it’s that core message which resonates powerfully through Urban’s twisting, exciting plot, making Osama’s Skull a thought-provoking and enjoyable read. — K.C.

Now it’s time to take “Old Ironsides” back. Before she is destroyed and the terrorists’ final, devastating revenge is enacted on the City of Boston.
REVIEWS
“A first-rate thriller.” William Martin, best-selling author of The Lincoln Letter, The Lost Constitution, and other books
“This is a fun read; it could easily be the premise for a feature film. The author clearly knows the style and pace of modern international thrillers coupled with a milieu he knows and has researched well…. [I]t’s an adventure tale for nearly all ages.” — Judge, Writer’s Digest 21st Annual Self-Published Book Awards
“When Old Ironsides turns 215…Boston is poised to celebrate…until a series of terrorist attacks strike the day of the big event. There are not many authors who will take you inside the mind of a terrorist, but Urban takes us into the minds of three. Not only that, he provides captivating details about the history of Old Ironsides, the military and his main characters…. I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be interested in finding any more by this author.” — Readers’ Favorite (5-Star Review)
“A terrorist with roots to the original Barbary pirates and his ruthless band have hijacked the USS Constitution…. As thrillers go, this one benefits from an unusual setting … as well as a likable hero in Zach Colt, a combination of Bruce Willis and Batman, …. I suspect Urban has the making of a … series that can be successful …. A good read.” — 6/13 Jack Quick, Stacey Alesi’s Bookbitch.com
