Kindle Unlimited has its own battlefield.
It’s not airport political thrillers.
It’s not legacy franchise heroes.
It’s a fast-moving, operator-driven, bingeable series built for readers who want momentum.
If you read military or espionage thrillers inside KU, here’s where my books fit.
If You Like Jason Kasper
Kasper readers tend to love:
-
Special Forces operators
-
Ground-level missions
-
Moral gray areas
-
Authentic tactical detail
The John Phoenix series lives in that operational space—but leans harder into CIA tradecraft.
Recruitment.
Double agents.
Political manipulation.
Collapsing regimes.
It’s not just kicking in doors.
It’s building and burning networks.
If You Like Steven Konkoly
Konkoly readers gravitate toward:
-
Escalating geopolitical instability
-
Multi-layered threats
-
Systems under pressure
Phoenix operates in that same kind of environment — Venezuela, Guyana, Caribbean power struggles — but the lens stays tight on the operator and the assets caught in the blast radius.
The global stakes are real.
So are the personal consequences.
If You Like Wayne Stinnett or Maritime Thrillers in KU
That’s where Ryan Weller fits.
Caribbean waters.
Salvage diving.
Freighters.
Storms.
Cartels.
Underwater danger.
If you like maritime thrillers that feel grounded instead of glossy — and where the ocean is as much an adversary as the villains — that’s your entry point.
If You Like Gritty Crime with a Blue-Collar Edge
That’s where The Stuntman comes in.
This isn’t geopolitical espionage.
It’s a Hollywood stuntman watching his career implode as he navigates criminal entanglements and reputational damage.
If you enjoy:
-
Reluctant protagonists
-
Physical, grounded action
-
Survival stories without superpowers
-
Characters trying to claw their way back
The Stuntman sits in that lane.
Think less spycraft — more personal implosion under pressure.
Where I Sit in the KU Ecosystem
Kindle Unlimited thrives on:
-
Clear stakes
-
Relentless pacing
-
Series momentum
-
Characters you can binge
That’s exactly how I write.
But I don’t do “mission of the week.”
I build arcs.
Geopolitical threads stretch across books.
Consequences compound.
Characters evolve — and not always in clean ways.
Now that the digital editions are back in KU, you can try any of the series without buying a single title outright.
If you’re a subscriber, it’s included.
Pick your battlefield.
Where to Start
CIA tradecraft and geopolitical tension → Rising Phoenix
Maritime danger and underwater stakes → Dark Water
Blue-collar survival and industry collapse → The Stuntman
Kindle Unlimited removes the friction.
The only risk is sleep.
