I do!
My longtime friend and former critique partner John Deacon writes fantastic westerns and you can find his books on Amazon here. If you don’t know where to jump in, I’d recommend starting with A Man Called Justice.
I’m also a big fan of Mike (MP) Woodward. He’s better known now for writing in the Tom Clancy universe, but his book Red Tide is one of the best epic military thrillers of the last decade. I can’t recommend that Red Tide highly enough.
If you love historical fiction, then I’d recommend my friend Tosca Lee. She cowrote a book called The Long March Home with Marcus Brotherton that is simply stellar. It follows three boyhood friends who join the army during World War II and are caught up in the Bataan Death March. This is the best historical military thriller I’d read since Once an Eagle by Anton Myrer.
Finally, I often get asked what it was like to serve in the army during the War on Terror, or more specifically, what it was like to serve in Afghanistan. For my money, I think Sean Parnell captured this better than anyone else with his memoir, Outlaw Platoon. This book is my generation’s We Were Soldiers Once and Young.
Happy reading!
