Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal

 

Honestly, any Christopher Moore would be pretty solid.

^ this or just let the guy write a tv series.

Erik Larson's Devil In The White City could make a GREAT movie. Leonardo DiCaprio has owned the film rights for the book for almost a decade now, and Scorsese was attached to the project as of mid-2015, but it doesn't look like there's been much movement from that point.

I mentioned these in another thread earlier today:

 

Michael Herr's book
Dispatches
was somewhat of an inspiration for some of the characters in
Apocalypse Now
and
Platoon
both, but I think it deserves to be made into it's own stand-alone movie.

 

I would like to see Tim O'Brien's novel
The Things They Carried
made into a movie too.

Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas ​series.

 

I'm still in favor of this, but would also like to see Harlan Coben's Myron Bolitar series on the television screen.

There was an Odd Thomas movie in 2013 starring the late Anton Yelchin. It had wrapped shooting in 2011but was delayed and never got a big opening or much press. The production team sued the studio about the lack of support for the movie.

Dean Koontz liked the movie and said it was a good adaptation.

I saw it and it was okay. I think the story is better suited for TV though.

Apologies for the first post(wrong place)

Heather Graham-Krewe Of Hunters

 

This series would be awesome as feature movies or a one hour TV show.

 

Lisa Gardner-FBI Profiler Series

Two hour feature movies or mini series on TV for each book IN THE SERIES.

Stephanie Plum TV series.

The Camel Club Series by David Baldacci. But not for TV. I want to seem them in movies.
I'd be happy if Baldacci would continue to write this series.

David Crockett: The Lion Of The West

 

It's a fantastic biography that gets into a significantly more in-depth version of his military service during the War of 1812 and his rivalry with Andrew Jackson. Not puffed up like the Disney episodes with Fess Parker. Pretty solid.

The answer I gave tonight, I gave a while back haha!

 

I will change my answer to Where Men Win Glory, book about Pat Tillman.

Tom Clancy: Jack Ryan series...a few of the movies have been made but the new movie has nothing to do with the novels and the time line is at least 30 years wrong

Tom Clancy: John Clark stories which are somewhat intertwined with the Ryan books but could def be a series of movies on their own.

 

Rainbow Six.

Thinking like @Jumper_Dad but with Jack Reacher in mind. There are several of these novels I'd like to see made into movies, "Nothing to Lose" comes to mind. However, with a guy that resembles the character in the book. NOT TOM CRUISE.
