Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Creator of The Chase Fulton Novels series and The Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins Series, Cap Daniels is a former sailing charter captain, scuba and sailing instructor, pilot, Air Force veteran, and civil servant of the U.S. Department of Defense. Raised far from the ocean in rural East Tennessee, his early infatuation with salt water was sparked by the fascinating, and sometimes true, sea stories told by his father, a retired Navy chief petty officer. Those stories of adventure on the high seas sent Cap in search of adventure of his own, which eventually landed him on Florida’s Gulf Coast where he and his wife Melissa spend as much time as possible on, in, and under the waters of the Emerald Coast.

With a headful of larger-than-life characters and their thrilling exploits, Cap pours his love of adventure and passion for the ocean onto the pages of his action adventure series, The Chase Fulton Novels, and his new series Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins.

Inspired by the likes of John D. Macdonald’s Travis McGee, Randy Wayne White’s Doc Ford, and Wayne Stinnett’s Jesse McDermitt, Cap creates thrilling tales of action and adventure set throughout the Caribbean and coastal Florida and Georgia by intertwining nautical adventure with international espionage. Cap’s Chase Fulton Novels series promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats, trying to guess what new danger or adventure lies just around the corner.

The Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins series is a spin-off starring the most controversial and intriguing character from the Chase Fulton Novels. After defecting to the United States, Anastasia "Anya" Burinkova, a former Russian SVR assassin and intelligence operative puts her lethal skill set into action against the powerful Russian Mafia. In this gritty, organized-crime thriller series, Cap Daniels takes his readers into the dark underworld of the Russian Mafia weaving actual events into fiction to leave the reader's heart pounding and their fingers itching to turn the page.

Excellent from beginning to end
5 Stars
Excellent from beginning to end
This review is for the first seven "Chase" books. Having finished the seventh one just today, I feel as if I should forward a big "Thank You" to Cap Daniels for writing such wonderful stories. Having been schooled in the military as a Navy scuba diver, an Army parachutist, Army and Marine Corps helicopter pilot (Vietnam) and later a Marine F-4 Phantom pilot, and even later as an Airline Transport Pilot flying for an outfit called Evergreen, I found it positively refreshing that the sequences in which those kinds of activities occurred in the novels were captured accurately and concisely. It is so much better to read of such exploits when they are written by someone who has "been there, done that" than someone who simply wished that he had, and merely did his research on the Internet.All of that is to say that there is a sense of "The Real" throughout these books that is hard to find elsewhere in modern "action adventure" books.The characters are artfully created and named. (I even loved Earline.). One gets, again, a sense of reality in that the author seems to know people as well as he knows how to request a flight clearance or permission to taxi to the active runway. Really good job of characterizing in each of the books. He also knows his way around a two-stage regulator and a parachute.And that is all wound around very good stories and plots that kept me up all night on two occasions, the most recent being last night, when I finished book 7 at six this morning, having slept not at all.Mr. Daniels also knows how to write, that is, he can construct sentences and paragraphs, and suspend belief and create tension and suspense as few others can.The books are edited very well. The only grammar mistakes that I found were surrounding the common misuse of the word "like," instead of the correct words "as" or "as if." But that is pretty picky on my part, considering that I actually search for errors in written works, not just stumble upon them, and I could find none worth mentioning apart from the above.These books are really well done, from beginning to end. And there's another book coming (Number 8!) for which I am anxiously awaiting.I began to think, considering my own experiences, that I should have written books like this; but that is "writer's conceit" at it's best. I could never write them, if only because I know nothing about how to sail a boat. That pretty much ended that train of thought.Anyway, you've done us all a favor by writing these books, Cap Daniels. I do hope that you continue onward to write others after you have completed this series.Most sincerely,retired U.S. Marine aviator, and other things. Only age 73.

Do you have an embedded memory of the first time you tasted something that was a life long passion, or noticed a scent you could never forget but remember for decades?

For me good authors and good novels have long lasting memories and within two pages I felt Cap Daniels must have written this first in a series just for me and like minded readers.

There may be better writers. There may be better plots or plot development but this author hits all my notes. I look forward to the balance of his books. I read about 200 books a year from selected authors of Westerns, War & Military, detective mysteries and espionage novels. This is my first Cap Daniels novel. While finding it by Amazon recommendation, I will eventually consume all of them.

Don't miss the boat!

ADDED: just finished Book 5 and they have each been very worth reading. Same characters (and they are) and the beat goes on, with an evolving story line. The star of each uses flashback to bring you up to the present with enough memories (and regrets?) just in case you read them out of order.

But each one so far adding to those remembered tastes and scents. Promise - no stinkers!

The author’s writing is generally crisp, not too flowery or too descriptive. The “origin story” of Chase Fulton is strong, but the book veers off from about 3/4 of the way through to the end. As the first of a series, that may just be inexperience.

I found the plot compelling and the pace was perfect! I love the characters and the premise of Chase Fulton’s introduction into his new “profession”. That being said, I would love to have a more complex dialogue and detailed description. Hopefully book two will contain more use of literary devices.

I enjoyed this. I suppose there's nothing too original about an orphan-training government assassin, but the story is well told and the setting is great, the sailboat and all that. Good characters, I like the scary Russian killer, she has a great voice! It doesn't take itself too seriously and it's a nice read. Will look out for others in the series.
