I much prefer British thrillers to American thrillers. Sorry for the political incorrectness.
Ian Flemming, Frederick Forsyth, Ken Follett, John le Carre, Graham Greene..........yeh the last is a serious one, and John le Carre can be also quite serious at times.
For spy books my favorite authors are Len Deighton and Anthony Price. The Anthony Price books a I have read at least three times and are currently on my fourth re-reading of all the books.
