Been getting back into my reading lately, I like the SAS style fiction such as Andy Mcnab and recently read both of James Deegans books, would highly recommend if you like that type of book

Up next am thinking of starting a Jeffrey archer. Generally good? Is Kane and Abel the best place to start?

Thanks in advance, honest opinions welcome!

Read the first 50 pages tonight. Enjoying it a lot. Start to get involved with one of the characters then Archer changes back to the other and you get stuck into them again.

Clever writing.

It’s been many years since I read an Archer book, but I would agree that he writes great page turners, nor will you be forced to google words you’re unfamiliar with. The Prodigal Daughter is the next book in the Kane & Abel trilogy FYI

That's a parochial view, if you don't mind me saying so Mr Uted.
Some of the nerdier types among us love googling words we are not familiar with.

Loved Kane and Abel. Sussed out fairly early on that Kane had been the silent investor! Finished the book last night, so didn’t do much else for 4 days getting through 500 pages!  About to start the Prodigal Daughter K4. As good as Kane and Abel in your opinion?

Really enjoyed "Not a penny more , not a penny less" by Archer.  Read it several times many years ago.
