If you liked vince Flynn and you like da I'd baldacci too, brad thor is a go to. Big time details on gear used in the books which is nice. They're fun reads. Very mitch rapp-esque. Check them out!

I usually have an audio book going, because I have about an hour and a half commute. I have Hidden Order a try a while back and gave up on it after about an hour. It was too bro-mancy for me. By bro-mancy, I mean the author had such a crush on his protagonist that I just couldn't take it.
The Jack Reacher series pushes that limit, but Lee Child is a much better writer, imo.

I've been working my way through all the James Patterson novels with the protagonist Alex Cross. Very good detective who-done-it's. Very down to earth.
Read some of the Jack Reacher, and it was okay. I just thing that Child being a Brit, doesn't get all the nuances of American society and his knowledge of firearms is a bit hit and miss. Like he's read about it, but never shot much.
But my all time favorite growing up was the original Donald Hamilton/Matt Helm series. Totally different than the crappola that Hollywood made of the books that Hamilton sold them the rights to. hamilton would never allow Hollywood to buy another book from him after that.

Have read all of the Vince Flynn and Brad Thor novels, as well as Daniel Silva, who I haven't seen mentioned in any of these threads. His character, Gabriel Allon is an Israeli agent. While I liked all of these writers, I believe Brad Thor had a tendency to over-describe the weapon details. All of the model numbers and attachments get my head spinning. Just say "suppressed HK" for me and I'm good
Edit: Just noticed this is in the edged weapons thread?
