The first season will focus on "Pendergast investigating a present-day crime mimicking a century-old mystery — that links to his own family's dark past.

Would you be adverse to graphic novels?

mistborn trilogy is decent, followed by the Wax and wayne series set in the same world several hundred years after the events of mistborn
Also the Kingkiller chronicles are good, but only 2 of the three books are out right now
the third book is supposed to be out this year assuming the author doesnt catch George R.R. Martin Disease

Well considering you have to be over fourteen to start an account on this site, I would wager yes, he would not be interested in reading comic books for children.
Idiot.

I recommend all Greg Iles books, especially the Penn Cage series. Iles is from Natchez.

You might like the Red Rising trilogy by Pierce Brown. It's described as Game of Thrones meets Hunger Games. The third book "Mornig Star" just came out last month.

Go back and read the early Tom Clancy stuff starting with The Hunt for Red October. Takes me back to being a kid when the Soviet Union was evil.

Brian Lumley's "Necroscope" series
Jonathan Maberry's "Dead of Night" series. There have only been 2 entries so far with the third set to release next month.

I came across a trilogy yesterday that is intriguing and will pick it up next. It's the first law series by joe Abercrombie that is set in a Anglo Saxon /Sci fi epic world. Or if you enjoy military based books there is the delta series

If you're into historical fiction try Ken Follett's two books Pillars of the Earth and World without End. Also his more recent history trilogy Fall of Giants through the Edge of Eternity are great.

Pretty sure Patriot Games comes first in the canon chronology. Just throwing that out there.

This may be correct, it's been a long time since I read them. I just know Red October was the first one out.

you might like the Malazan series and its got like 10 books so if you do like it you would be set for a while.

If you can get past the name, Harry Turtledove has a sweeping alternate history series that begins with the South winning the Civil War and seceding and extending past the present to the earth being invaded and conquered by aliens. It will keep you busy for a long, long time.

I second the Mistborn series, and also recommend The Gentleman Bastard by series by Scott Lynch as well.

This. Read both Natchez Burning and The Bone Tree over the summer. Now reading Devils Punchbowl. Not normally big on thrillers or genre fiction but I have really enjoyed these

If you like alternate history, one of my favorites is the series written by Harry Turtledove. One series (my favorite) starts with the south winning the Civil War and having USA split into two countries. It traces the history from that time through World Wars and beyond. Very intriguing brain candy.
The other series involves world history and aliens. A bit out there but still fun.
