I enjoy reading techno-thrillers, like stuff from Tom Clancy. What are some other books/authors that have a similar style or subject matter?

Vince Flynn is a poor man's Tom Clancy but his stuff is decent enough.

Crichton. Techno thrillers are truly the pinnacle of speculative fiction

Crichton is a fun author, but Congo is the only one of his that comes close to the kind of stuff Clancy would write.

Stephen Hunter, who is one of the few in the genre that can probably stack up against Tom Clancy.

>Jules Verne's latest techno-thriller boldly confronts the menace of Islamic terrorism. He has topnotch chops in technical accuracy, with endearing dashes of broad humor and a keen eye for telling detail.
