Don Pendleton
Don Pendleton (December 12, 1927 - October 23, 1995) was a writer, best known for the creation of American hero Mack Bolan. The series made the Action-Adventure genre popular in the 1960s/70s and got him the nickname of "the father of action adventure". The Mack Bolan novels penned by Pendleton revolved around Bolan's one man war against the mafia, beginning with War Against the Mafia and ending with Satan's Sabbath. Once Pendleton sold the rights to the series, the first book out was The New War by Saul Wernick, which started Bolan's fight against terrorism. Other works by Pendleton include the Joe Copp and Ashton Ford Series.
