What I'm Reading

Several years ago I read Frederick Forsythe's book, The Day of the Jackal, and I loved it so much I was eager to read more books just like it. I shortly thereafter found The Bourne series by Robert Ludlum, but after the third in that series it started to peter out for me. By chance, a few years later, I stumbled upon a book by Ted Bell that set up a similar kind of spy adventure series, an almost even better series than the ones I had previously read. That's when I fell for the dashing Alex Hawke, and became enamored with his cast of colleagues - Ambrose Congreve, Stokely Jones, Harry Brock, and Stoke's sidekick, Sharky. Part English aristocracy, part James Bond, part British and U.S. special forces, part independent mercenary contractors, this thrilling series spans the globe with a team of likable and brave heroes fighting the bad guys in our modern world. Warlord was the most recent installment in Alex Hawke's story, and I couldn't read it fast enough. If you haven't check it out, head straight to your local bookstore or library and get your hands on some Ted Bell.
