Definitely will add Matthew Hawkwood to my list of bad@$$$ non-romance heroes. I just finished Resurrectionist. It's dark Regency era adventure/thriller. He doesn't play around!

Eddie Chase from The Hunt For Atlantis goes on my list. He's a bit atypical for an action hero, but he definitely kicks but and has a silly sense of humor.

Jessica (studioeastrat) | 511 comments I just finished Steel, Blood & Fire by Allan Batchelder and Tarmun Vykers is defiantly a dangerous hero. He is a bit of an antihero and the main character of this epic fantasy.

I read your review and it sounds good. Thanks for the heads up, Jessica.

Jessica (studioeastrat) | 511 comments It is reasonably price too. I would highly recommend it.

Alisa I've got to add Deacon Chalk from Blood and Bullets (Deacon Chalk Occult Bounty Hunter #1) by James R. Tuck Just got around to this series recently. It's good.

Neeta | 38 comments Detective Mike Chapman from the Alexandra Cooper novels by Linda Fairstein.
Shane "Scarecrow" Schofield in the Matthew Reilly novels.
Jack Reacher from the Lee Child novels.
Dirk Pitt from the Clive Cussler novels. Yum!!

When I took a 5 year break from romance novels, these were some of the books/series that I was absolutely addicted to. Not least because these guys were absolutely swoon-worthy, kick-arse, and totally badass (and if I'd been writing them, I'd totally have given 'em all a permanent love interest....me!!)

Alisa Mike Chapman is a great suggestion. How did I forget him?

Oh Neeta, we seem to have a lot of the same tastes! Shane is my literary husband! Have you read Joe Pike by Robert Crais? I think you will love him. And Will Robie by David Baldacci!

Neeta | 38 comments Have read Baldacci but not Crais... might have to look into that!

Oh and how could I forget Jeffrey Deaver's Lincoln Ryhme!! For someone paralysed from the neck down, he's still completely badass! Just freakin brilliant!
