List of Brad Thor Books in Chronological Order

Brad Thor is a part of the Analytic Red Cell Program of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which brainstorms terrorist scenarios in susceptible areas and tries to anticipate possible terrorist attacks.

Apart from his books, Brad Thor has been well-known as the award-winning producer, writer, and host of the television series "Traveling Lite". Born in 1969, he chose to give up the world of television to pursue his passion of writing novels.

He believes in creating novels that are more of "faction" than fiction, referring to a genre of novels that draw inspiration from real-life scenarios and events. So much so that his books predicted the NSA Spying Scandal and the release of five controversial Guantanamo Bay detainees.

He credits such predictions to his ability to conduct in-depth research and stay abreast of all world events. The research sometimes involves him shadowing government operatives and learning on the job.

His way of writing has attracted a fair share of admirers as well as haters, to a point that he had to relocate to a different neighborhood due to the copious amounts of death threats he was receiving. In the end, all the hard work paid off, which is evident in the popularity of his books and the huge number of novels he has sold, to date, worldwide.

His books have also been acclaimed and appreciated by his peers. His book The Last Patriot was nominated for the Best Thriller of the Year by the International Thriller Writers Association (ITWA), and Blowback was voted as one of 100 Best Ever Killer Thrillers by the audiences of the National Public Radio.
