All of Charles Martin's books would be good.

    Al Lacy and Robert Whitlow are favorites in our library.

    All the previous recommendations are great. I would like to add: The Marc Royce series by David Bunn, The Marcus Ryker series by Joel C. Rosenberg, The J.B. Collins series by Joel C. Rosenberg, The David Shirazi series by Joel C. Rosenberg, The Last Jihad series by Joel C. Rosenberg, The Auschwitz Escape by Joel C. Rosenberg. All these books are EXCELLENT!

    Hi Morlee. As several folks mentioned, my Christian thrillers are great for men. I hear from a lot of female readers who have turned their husbands on to my books. I hope you will check them out. All 15 of my titles are available from INGRAM and on Amazon. Creston Mapes

      Thanks so much for sharing with us today! I need to check our catalog to see which of your books we need to add to our collection. We have a men's reading group that lean toward nonFiction because their facilitator prefers nonFiction. Our prayers go with you as one of my church's favorite authors.

        Morlee, thank you for your prayers. That means a lot to me. I have series books (Signs of Life Series, Crittendon Files, Rock Star Chronicles), and stand-alone thrillers (I Am In Here, Celebrity Pastor, and Nobody ...and soon launching Sapphire Island). Let me know if you need any further information. All best. Creston

          Thank you! I checked our library catalog and noticed we need to add your books to our collection. I am planning to start by adding the Signs of Life series to the catalog first.  I recently purchased one for my Kindle and have found it difficult to put down.

    James Rubart is good (The Five Times I Met Myself, Spirit Bridge, Rooms). Just to go a little askew, there are some female Christian authors I also really enjoy: Dorothy L Sayers (The Man Born To Be King, The Emperoor Constantine), Sharon Dunn (Death of a Garage Sale Newbie, Romance Rustlers and Thunderbird Thieves), Rene Gutteridge (Boo, Boo Who, Boo His, My Life as a Doormat), Mindy Starns Clark (The Trouble with Tulip, Blind Dates Can be Murder, A Penny for Your Thoughts) Nancy Moser (not related) (Mozart's Sister, Time Lottery), Mary Connealy (Tried and True, Now and Forever), Sandy Dengler (Cat Killer, Mouse Trapped, Murder on the Mount, etc.).
