Last book was "The Angel of Darkness" by Caleb Carr. Same characters as "The Alienist", a few years later.

The John Wells series by Alex Berenson. It fills the gap until the next Gabriel Allon book comes out.

Here are two great books that I recently finished. If you’re looking for a good zombie book I recommend Zombie Road: Convoy of Carnage by David A. Simpson. If something historical is what you are looking for 90 Minutes at Entebbe by William Stevenson is a great one.

To fill in, I've been working my way chronologically through Joseph Finder's works. They are very good action novels.
 
After being on the waiting list at my library, I finally got Mark Greaney's latest, Relentless, Gray Man book #10. Will be starting that this coming week.

The Giant Killer - The Incredible True Story of the Smallest Man to Serve in the US Military.

It's the story of Captain Richard Flaherty, a 4' 9" Green Beret who earned a Silver Star, 2 Bronze Stars, and 2 Purple Hearts in Vietnam, then went on to do clandestine work with the CIA after the war, before ending up homeless on the streets of Miami.

Catching up on some of the classics this year. Already finished “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey,” now working on “Don Quixote.” In between some recreational reading as well. Read Matthew McConaughey’s memoir “Greenlights,” which I’ll describe as “interesting,” but not much more than that.

Since there has been a lot of discussion about Amazon's production of 'Without Remorse' I decided to pull the book down off the bookshelf, blow the dust off and reread it rather than watch the movie version.
