I would consider it mystery/thriller. Reacher is basically your ex-military, loner type of character.

In my opinion, Child is one of the best. If you haven't picked up any of Child's books, do yourself a favor. Killing Floor is the first in the series, and hard to put down. Reacher is an incredible protagonist.

Ha. Small world. Welcome to this forum also.

David, I am also a very big fan of crime novels/mysteries. But, every now and then I venture away into a little nonfiction. It isn't easy! Who are some of your favorite crime writers?

Lee Child's Jack Reacher series is a great start. Killing Floor is the first in the series.

35 books. Everytime I knock one off, I add a couple more!

Yes, I would recommend Vince Flynn. I have read all of his books, and he is good. Read them in order if you can.

Sergo and K-S, Thank you for the recommendations. I will take a look online to see what I can find. Boris Akunin seems to be an author that interests me.

Sergo, I live in America, and I am always looking to try out new authors. If you could recommend a Russian author, who would you recommend in the mystery/crime/thriller genre? Thanks.

This book happens to be one of my favorites of all time. I read it when it first came out, and I happen to have it on my bookshelf. In my book it says "The word fit School like a condom, the conceit of a man who could manipulate and murder at the same time tout himself as father confessor to...

I have The Death Collectors in my TBR pile. I've been busy getting caught up on some other authors. I've also had the chance to speak with Mr. Kerley. I work for a school, and he may end up coming to talk to our students about writing, editing, etc. I will look for Caught Stealing, and see...

I forgot to add Mr. Kerley to my list. The 100th Man was a great debut for him. I have never tried Huston. I will have to look for his books.

You are correct, it is Rostnikov. I accidently misspelled it. Anyway, I am ordering the first in the series off the internet, and I am going to start the series soon.

Sergo, Have you read any of Stuart Kaminsky's novels featuring detective Inspector Porfiry Rostnkov? I know they take place in Russia. Someone on another message board recommended the series to me. Thanks.

Lee Child, Robert Crais, Ed McBain, Barry Eisler, Randy Wayne White, Michael McGarrity, Robert Parker, Michael Connelly

Right now I have been in a reading frenzy. I have been reading about 2 novels per week. I prefer softcover books over hardcover books, but I read both. My own personal library is stocked with about 80% softcover books. I have a variety of authors that I like to read, and I am trying new ones...

Scooter13, I am a big fan of the crime genre. Robert B. Parker is good, especially if you get into the Spenser series. I also like reading Robert Crais, Randy Wayne White, and Ed McBain.

I like Connelly also. I have not read The Lincoln Lawyer yet, but it is on my list.

Appolonia, I am glad to see another Cincinnati person in the forum. I am right across the river in KY! I am also a big crime fiction fan.
