Great list, James. I'm pleased to say I've read four of them! I've never heard of Don Winslow, so I have added his name to my TBR list.
Thanks, Bill. I'll be interested to hear what you think of Winslow once you've had a chance to read him.
Wow, I am impressed by your strong endorsement of the Block series, James. Moving book 1 up on the list!
Haven't read the first two but the others are brilliant. I especially liked The Winter of FM although The Big Sleep is a classic.
Winslow's interesting for his ability to emotionally convey a saga as complex as the war on drugs but still write in a completely different voice as in Frankie Machine, Savages or the Kings of Cool.
Sins of the Fathers was a wonderful read. I too have enjoyed the growth of Matt Scudder.
