Brad Thor at Book Revue

Bestselling author Brad Thor will speak about and sign his new book, "Full Black."

In his 10th novel focused on Scot Harvath, a Navy SEAL turned covert counterterrorism operative, Thor offers innovative plots and extensive knowledge of intelligence, special operations, and terrorist communities, which got him, noticed by the Department of Homeland Security.

They invited him to participate in their "Red Cell" program, an elite group of writers and artists who are commissioned to dream-up and brainstorm terrorist scenarios for our government. "What I developed there stays there – that was the deal," Thor states. "That said, the ideas I come up with for my novels are created in the same way that the scenarios for the Red Cell Program are."

To collect valuable research for his novels, Thor recently toured Afghanistan with a group of people who ... well, he can't exactly say who they were. "It was dangerous, very dangerous, but very exciting at the same time."

Thor's 2008 #1 New York Times bestseller "The Last Patriot" was banned in Saudi Arabia for fictionalizing a lost Islamic text.
