Adventure thrillers

[Dogtanian]

Hi,

I usually pass my time by reading crime thrillers but i'm suffering a bit of burnout with them at the minute. I've ordered a few horror books but want to get some adventure thriller books as well.

What i'm looking for is something in the vein of Cussler/Brown in that its just a good easy to read yarn.

Has anyone read any John Case, Micael Cordy, Steve Alten, Bill Napier or Jack Du Brol? Also, any other suggestions, either author or book specifically would be most welcome.

Yeah, I read The Genesis Code by John Case and thought it was pretty weak.

I have read Steve Alten's books, they are quick, easy and entertaining. He has a new book, "The Loch" coming out next week. I would also recommend James Rollins, Doug Preston/Lincoln Child, F. Paul Wilson's Repairman Jack books and Jim Butcher's Dresden Files.

Vince Flynn absolutely fantastic for the action / thriller genre. Much better than Cussler.

Vince Flynn is good however his earlier books were better than his last three where the quality has diminished. I recommend Barry Eisler for his John Rain series. The writing is better and the villains are more challenging to the protagonist.
