Brent Towns’ Team Reaper Thriller series is a long-running thriller sequence that started with Retribution in 2019 and has grown to twenty books as of 2025. The first year alone saw eight releases, from Retribution through Empty Quiver, which gives a sense of the series’ rapid output. Towns kept up a steady pace through 2020 and 2021 before spacing the later entries out a bit more.
The books follow a continuing cast and should be read in publication order starting with Retribution. Titles like Deadly Intent, Blood Rush, Kill Count, and Danger Close give a clear idea of the series’ action-focused tone. The most recent entry, Hammer Down, came out in 2025, and with twenty books now available, new readers have plenty of material to work through from the beginning.
