What's this?

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. It looks good, but I fear I'm just too behind

I've read all the Alex Cross series thus far by James Patterson, the John Corey series (by Nelson DeMille -- shorter series but very worth it) and the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn. I started on the Alex Hawke series by Ted Bell but they got to be a bit too dense. I read many of the Stone Barrington series by Stuart Woods because they're quick reads, but they got too preposterous eventually. The Lucas Davenport "Prey" series by John Sandford is really good as well. And of course the Harry Bosch series by Michael Connolly. Then there's Jack Reacher, by Lee Child ... the Myron Bolitar series by Harlan Coben (which he seems to be finished with) ... the Scot Harvath series by Brad Thor ... wow I read a lot.
