What are you reading?

I picked up Tom Clancy's latest book, "Locked On", to read over the holidays. I've always enjoyed his particular technical-spy-political-thriller genre. But now, I've been looking for other authors in the genre.

So far, I've gotten suggestions to try Clancy's "Locked On" co-author Mark Greaney's "The Gray Man". Also, I've been told that Lee Child's, Jack Reacher novels are a pretty good read.

Any feedback?

The Internet by Al Gore. I started it in the mid 90's and I don't think I'm close to the end yet.

The wife just finished Steven Kings 11-23-63. Prob not in the Clancy genre but a good historical/fiction you might call it. She's more of a M. Crichton reader. I'm not really a novel reader but I may have to start this one.

You should like the Jack Reacher books if you like Clancy.

Check out anything by Frederick Forsyth. He wrote "The Day of the Jackal", "The Odessa File" and a bunch of others. Can't think of anything he wrote that wasn't excellent.

I've been reading "The Innocent Man" by John Grisham. It's a pretty good read so far.

I'm a Stephen Hunter fan. I read all the Bob Lee Swagger books, I am now on the second book about Bob Lee's father, Earl. Every one has been a great read. I highly recommend them. I kind of wish I had read the Earl books first, then the Bob Lee books, but I read them in order of publication.
Bob Lee books:
Point of Impact
Black Light
Time to Hunt
The 47th Samurai
Night of Thunder
I, Sniper
Dead Zero

Earl Books:

Hot Springs
Pale Horse Coming
Havana

After I finish with Earl, I'll grab Hunter's newest book, Soft Target.
