More on Stephen Hunter
I had to get the first three novels via Abebooks.com, and I’m now reading Black Light from the library. Findings regarding the “series” novels:
* 1980 The Master Sniper — events from this referenced in Black Light
* 1982 The Second Saladin — characters reappear in Black Light
* 1985 Target (film novelization) — not series—and it IS just a novelisation
* 1985 The Spanish Gambit (reissued as Tapestry of Spies) — (Spanish Civil War setting—some characters reappear in later novels)
* 1989 The Day Before Midnight — some characters reappear in later novels
* 1993 Point of Impact — first full novel of the series
* 1994 Dirty White Boys — second of the series
* 1996 Black Light — third of the series (I’m reading this now, from the library)
* 1998 Time to Hunt
* 2000 Hot Springs
* 2001 Pale Horse Coming
* 2003 Havana
* 2007 The 47th Samurai
UPDATE: In Havana, we see characters from several of the earlier novels. You may as well treat the entire set as a series.
