It took me a long time to stumble across Ian Rankin's Inspector John Rebus series, but now I am hooked. I have also started his Malcolm Fox series. Someday I'll get to his other books as well.
I first encountered Rebus when I tried to watch the television adaptation of the Rebus books staring Scottish cutie John Hannah. But I couldn't understand a word they said! And no subtitles for the Scottish impaired. Then I finally figured out that the show was based on the book series and my problems were solved.
Normally, I am fiendish about reading a series in order. But when I found the audio version of Strip Jack at my library, I decided to test it to see if I would like the series. I did and now I am committed.
Those I have read are in red. Those on my TBR shelf are in blue. This is a list only of his Rebus and Fox books.
