Harry Patterson / Jack Higgins This my favorite writer, and the author of some of my favorite books (The Eagle has Flown, Brought in Dead, The Eagle has Landed, The President's Daughter) and many of the Patterson books I love as well.
But I'm not just a single author snob, I read pretty much everything. From King to Barlow, Clancy to Grisham, from dictionaries to thesauruses.
And I can often be found with me face buried in a world war history book or two (I LOVE to read about the era from 1900-1950 in warfare)
