"W.E.B. Griffin is my number one author EVER! His real name is William E. Butterworth and I don't know where the Griffin came from.
His books are military in nature and as I am ex-Army I can readily identiy.
He has several series going.
One series is about N.Y. policemen. His dialogue is so brilliant that I can't put the books down. Such interesting characters and great plots.
My favorites are the military ones. He starts off writing about WWI. Sounds boring to some but again, his character development is awesome. You don't have to have a military background to read these. His explanations are so well written that anyone can understand what he's talking about.
The series begins when this rich polo playing kid was drafted into WWI as a private. He was stationed overseas (I think - because it's been a long time since I read these) and a General Officer wanted to play polo but they were one man short. They put out a call for polo players and this guy answered. BUT the General wouldn't play with an enlisted man so he was promoted to 2LT to play polo.
That was not the plot of the story but I thougt it was really cute. The characters grow and move into the next novel progressively. They are placed into actual military battles and you get to see the development of offensive / defensive military tactics that are made so interesting.
He uses obscure military events and places his characters right smack dab in the middle of them.
I can't stree enough to give this guy a chance. BUT it would be better to start at the beginning of his series since his characters are used over and over again. You may miss out on the character development but he does go into explanations of each character if you happen to read them out of order.
