Great list here! With father’s day coming up I have been trying to find some good books for my dad! He’s an avid reader and tends to lean towards action-packed books (think Tom Clancy). I am going to order “We Begin at the End” for him – thanks! I recently read a book that I think he would enjoy as well as other male readers called “Cyclops Conspiracy” by William McGinnis. It’s a fast-paced thriller reminiscent of Bond and Reacher, with awesome characters and a really exciting plot. The author brings this world to life through great characterization and believable storylines, you can imagine these situations taking place in today’s world! It really left me with so many thoughts and questions about how things really are in the world of anti-terrorism. How safe are we really? Perhaps it could be added to a future list! Thanks again
Thank you so much!
