Unlike thrillers, action books don't seem to be very common. Books I'd classify there aren't very thrilling, in my opinion. But maybe I just missed the good ones.When I think about the action genre, I think about movies, not books. A lot of these scenes and conventions, based on readers' expectations, also seem to be inspired by movies. If we like action novels, we probably like action movies too.

What are good action stories, good action authors?
