The Cannibal Queen - by Stephen Coonts

Nice story that he wrote about him flying a Stearman all over the United States one summer. Simple, pure flying.

Beat me to it about Flynn's books. I'd start with the first chronolgical book "American Assassin" Some of the best fiction I've ever read

I’ve been a sci-fantasy fan for over 30 years and Guy Gavriel Kay is the best author out there. If fantasy is your thing, he’s got a lot more than just that one title. I keep a word document that is over 5 single spaced pages long of the books I’ve read since HS so if you like this one I’ve got a lot more recommendations from where that came from.

Second for the Dog Stars. Absolutely beautifully written. As if suddenly everything every literature teacher I ever had made sense when I read it. Excellent.
