Ray Hansen began writing the Nina Steel Adventure series in 1988 under the pen name, Navar Lake, which he no longer uses. Banking on Torture was the first book written, however, pressure from friends and family encouraged him to write a different opener to the series. This brought about Reunion, which is now widely accepted as the first book in the series and was released in audio and e-book formats in 1993 along with Banking on Torture as an e-book. Four years later, the highly anticipated third book in the series was released under a great deal of hoopla due to the book's title, A Hamster in a Microwave. A landslide of mail from animal rights groups found its way to Mr. Hansen's doorstep. Their concerns were laid to rest, as the book has nothing to do with the microwaving of hamsters or any other animals. Originally, the series was to be made up of eight books or episodes with each book having its own plot, but at the same time being part of a much larger plot that encompasses all eight books. Yet once again, Mr. Hansen is under pressure to expand the series, as a rapidly growing Nina Steel fan club is demanding more. At this time, Mr. Hansen is not revealing whether the series will end with book eight or continue on indefinitely. In either case, the readers of action/adventure can be assured that Nina Steel and her team of terrorist bounty hunters will be around for many years to come in this incredibly popular series.
