  NICK CARTER
  Carter_Nick126
  
  Full Name: Nicholas J. Huntington Carter
  Series Name: Killmaster
  Codename: N3
  Nationality: American
  Organization: AXE
  Occupation Agent
  Creator: Nick Carter
  Time Span: 1964 - 1990
  ABOUT THE SERIES
  
   Nick Carter is an agent for AXE.
   There is no doubt that the Nick Carter, Killmaster, series was created simply to cash in on the extreme popularity of the James Bond phenomenon. The character of Carter was too perfect, too much a man's man and a woman's desire, too feared an opponent, and too capable an agent.
   What probably surprised the creators, working for the Universal Printing and Distribution Corporation, was that he didn't show up, sell a few books, and then go away. Nick Carter became a phenomenon all his own!
   261 books. That makes the Nick Carter, Killmaster, storyline one of the more written action series in the history of publishing.
   Over 30,000,000 copies of Nick Carter books were sold. Averaged over the length of the series, that would result in each book having sold around 115,000 copies.
   That is not at all shabby for a series that was just a copycat.
   But the Killmaster series had something else going for it that may not have been intentional but was nevertheless a factor. It had some highly qualified authors putting out these episodes quickly and frequently.
   At first blush the speed that the books had to be "cranked out" would make it seem that each story was rushed and therefore not likely to be good. But this speed seems to have at worst kept the books from being better. The books seem to prove that quality writers routinely produce quality writing.
   Martin Cruz Smith, Michael Collins, David Hagberg, W.T. Ballard, Thomas Costain, and Ralph Hayes. These are six of the known authors that penned the Nick Carter series. They, and others, have gone on to create reputations for highly successful and highly skilled writing. They brought to the Killmaster stories prowess at creating fiction that they would show in other works under their own name.
   The Killmaster books do have a fair amount of variation in style and quality. Some are not so good. Some are in the 1st person while others are told as a 3rd person narrative. In a handful, Carter is a deep thinking agent and in many he is a shoot-first action hero.
   But in all the books, Agent N-3 is the quintessential American hero, a man who is not afraid to head into danger and is capable of handling any opponent.
   Nick Carter has a lean face. His hair is normally dark brown in color, thick and glossy with a "mildly satanic" widow's peak. He possesses a high, unlined forehead above a straight nose. His eyes are wide-set over high cheekbones; said to be "strange eyes hardly ever still and changing color as often as the sea". His mouth is firm and well shaped, usually reserved but sometimes with a hint of sensuality.
   In keeping with his many years of arduous activities, his body is in the peak of conditioning. His shoulders are massive. He has a narrow and tight waist and his legs are described as "tanned pillars of smooth muscles". His muscles were no overly obvious but were, nevertheless, like steel cables.
   There are several items of interest in the indefatigable Nick Carter. So many, in fact, it is hard to know which one should lead off.
   In keeping with his role as a super-secret agent for the American government agency AXE, Nick Carter has a small tattoo of an axe on the inside of his right elbow. That is one way to remain inconspicuous.
   Another fact is Nick's weapons that he takes with him everywhere. There is his pistol, a luger he calls Wilhelmina, held in a shoulder holster on his left side. Hugo is the name for his stiletto, sheathed in a piece of chamois above his right wrist and spring loaded to fly into his grip with a touch.. And lastly, he carries a gas pellet that goes by the name Pierre, golf ball sized but exactly where the pellet is hidden is not known.
   The cover for the headquarters of AXE in Washington is the Amalgamated Press and Wire Service, located on Dupont Circle. In charge is David Hawk. He is a stern man described as on the older side of life but still referred to as "lean, wiry, and leather-tough." He has a fondness for cigars, chomping hard on them when tensions arise. Though he is known to not like leaving his offices, he frequently has to in the performance of his job. He does not travel well. He liaises with most upper level governmental leaders but answers only to the "Chief", also known as the President.
  
  Note: The identity of the authors attributed to each book comes from an AWESOME reference book, "Action Series and Sequels" by Bernard A. Drew, copyrighted by him 1988 and published Garland Publishing, Inc. If the names are correct, he gets the credit. If there is a mistake, it'll be my fault. Trust me.

   As a couple of visitors to this site have pointed out, the numbering of the books that I use is very much open to argument. I have used the best judgment I had at the time but except in the later years of the series where the publisher was nice enough to number them, many are arguable.
   One nice thing, though, is that the books do not need to be read in any particular order. Starting from the beginning and working your way through, it might be better to read #10 before #163, for example, because of the separation in time but wondering if you should read #72 before #73, it hardly matters.
