As I mentioned before, Michael Connelly is well - known for his 'Harry Bosch' series. His detailed descriptions of police procedures and the gritty world of crime in Los Angeles make his books very engaging.
Garth Ennis has also made contributions. His work often delves into the darker aspects of human nature, and when it comes to cop - related graphic novels, he doesn't shy away from showing the flaws and the tough decisions that cops face. His 'The Boys' has elements that touch on law enforcement in a very different and thought - provoking way.
Ed McBain is a well - known author. His '87th Precinct' series is set in a fictional New York and offers a detailed look at police work. Another is Lawrence Block. His novels often feature New York cops and the seedy side of the city they have to deal with.
Richard K. Morgan is well - known for his 'Altered Carbon' which has a strong cop - centered storyline in a sci - fi setting. His writing often explores complex social and technological concepts within these stories.
There's Lee Child, who has written some great books that could be considered in the realm of best cop fiction. His Jack Reacher series features a former military policeman who often gets involved in solving crimes. Reacher's no - nonsense approach and his ability to outwit the bad guys make for great reading. Another author is Tess Gerritsen. Her novels, such as those in the Rizzoli & Isles series, blend medical and police elements. The characters are well - drawn, and the plots are full of twists and turns that keep readers on the edge of their seats.
Tom Clancy is a well - known author. His military series novels, like 'The Jack Ryan Series', are full of action - packed military and espionage scenarios. Another is Bernard Cornwell, famous for his 'Sharpe' series. Stephen E. Ambrose is also well - regarded for works like 'Band of Brothers'.
One of the most famous is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. He created the Sherlock Holmes series, which has been extremely popular for over a century. Holmes' sharp intellect and his ability to solve the most complex mysteries are what make these novels so great.
There's also Victor Hugo. He wrote 'Les Misérables' during this period. Hugo's works often dealt with themes of justice, love, and the human condition. His writing was very powerful and had a great impact. Additionally, the Brontë sisters, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne, were important authors. Their novels like 'Jane Eyre' and 'Wuthering Heights' explored themes of love, passion, and the struggle against social constraints.
Jane Austen is also a great author of super novels. Her works like 'Pride and Prejudice' deal with themes of love, class, and society in a very nuanced way. The characters are well - drawn, and the storylines are both entertaining and thought - provoking.
Don Winslow. He wrote some great crime works in 2016. His writing often has a gritty and realistic feel, delving deep into the criminal underworld and the characters involved.
I'm not aware of other specific authors that are distinctively associated with just 'Turtledove Novels' as it seems to be a name perhaps more associated with Harry Turtledove's works in particular. But generally in the genre of alternate - history novels, there are other authors like Kim Stanley Robinson who write in a somewhat related vein, though not directly part of this so - called 'Turtledove Novels' group.
