The last thing I need in my life is another social media platform but so many good people I follow have migrated here.

What are you reading this weekend?

I read it and Moran’s book feels real because it is real. No superhero stuff, just patient tradecraft, awkward meetings, and high-stakes human relationships. That’s what CIA work actually looks like. #CIA #Espionage #SpyBooks #spycraft #spyauthor abcnews.go.com/GMA/Books/st...

Hi!
My name is Jeff McComsey and I’m a comic artist and writer looking to connect with comic people/artists/writers/editors on here!

Below is a 12 page fan comic adaptation I did a few months ago featuring my favorite literary character: George Smiley.

Sharp, vivid, sensual, precise writing. #Quiller is a one-man-band spy with a honed, attentive, in-the-moment mind in a madly subjective Berlin; makes for a lean, swift 1st person read. I can't wait to read the next one, though these are very rarely on the 2nd hand shelves. #SpyBooks #AdamHall

Love hearing what holds up from someone who’s actually been in the game. The good spy books nail the mindset and the waiting- not just the action and gadgets.

Agent Storm by Morten Storm. Gave it 4 stars. Raw, fast, and deeply personal. One of the best spy memoirs I have ever read.

2. ...wild hats, some karate, a bemused CIA Deputy Chief, great locals, nasty villains, & astonishing travelogue descriptions of amazingly beautiful, historic places in Turkey, Bulgaria, etc, that I now yearn to visit.

Goreme, Turkey at night Bulgaria's historic City of the Stars and former capital in the old city of Veliko Tarnova The Cappadocia region of Turkey is a UNESCO World Heritage site and has great rock outcroppings that look like fairy tunnels or a city built out of tiny holes in the side of a mountain. The area is perfect for viewing via a hot air balloon, to the point that Cappadocia is a major and works famous hot air balloon hub. This photo shows a woman standing on a balcony overlooking the area while anywhere between 20 to 30 colourful hot air balloons fill the sky in front of her Part of Cappadocia's cave and underground city complex built partially into the side of a mountain

The glitzy costumes and glamorous locations in spy stories don’t hurt either, and y’all know how much I love writing action scenes. In many ways, I feel like the spy genre is tailor-made for my writing strengths/interests.

Real spy tales beat fiction every time. Double lives, betrayals, covert ops-truth really is stranger than novels. These stories pull back the curtain on how shadow wars are actually fought. crimereads.com/greatest-tru... #spythrillers #spystories #spytales #spybooks #spynovels

If you want more action-packed spy shenanigans, then please buy a copy of A TOUCH OF TREACHERY and the other books in the Section 47 series, request them from your library, recommend them on social media, etc. I would greatly appreciate it. ❤

Nothing better than a real ex-spy weighing in on which espionage books actually get the tradecraft right. Changes how you read them- some are spot on, others are pure Hollywood. #SpyBooks #CIA #Espionage crimereads.com/espionage-bo...
