Definition of "Thriller Genre": The thriller genre is very broad and can be difficult to define. However, the focus of a thriller ebook is typically on action, danger and suspense. The genre can be broken into an almost infinite number of sub-genres, including action thrillers (think Clive Cussler ebooks), romance thrillers, psychological thrillers (think Psycho by Hitchcock), science fiction thrillers, and spy thrillers, just to name a few. Common elements can include car chases, gun shoot outs, explosions, or in the case of psychological thrillers, the elements of danger can be related to the mental manipulation of characters by other characters. It is an expansive genre, and one of the most popular at eBookHounds.
Some examples of the best thriller authors and ebooks of all time: Dan Brown (The Da Vinci Code), Robert Ludlum (The Bourne Identity), Michael Crichton (The Andromeda Strain), John Grisham (Time to Kill), John D. MacDonald (Cape Fear); James Patterson (Kiss the Girls). As you can see, ebooks in the thriller category vary widely in their substance, and the sub-genres can almost be considered genres of their own!

For fans of Life of Pi and The Alchemist, an unforgettable, spellbinding literary epic, brimming with excitement and magic that will have you laughing and crying in the joy of being alive that is the Caribbean.
When Ethan Carpenter fails to get help for his mother as she lays dying, he is blamed for her death, cast out by a father who hates him, and finds himself abducted to a small sailboat in the Caribbean. The man who holds him descends to the darkest of evil with the boy his prey, as dangerous to Ethan as the tiger in Life of Pi. Like Pi, Ethan must find a way to avoid the man and his evil on an extended voyage, a two month, 1,500 mile sail the length of the Caribbean. But unlike Pi he must fight a second tiger within. Selfblame for his mother’s death has taken him so far into himself that the real world seems an illusion, suicide the only answer. As the evil increases he is pushed toward becoming part of the very evil he is fighting. Can he overcome the man while finding a way out of the darkness that is his life? The boy’s odds dim as the voyage becomes a frightening odyssey with the killer ocean storms, predators of the deep, and fantastical and deadly characters on shore as Homer told it of old.
The boy’s only hope is a black sailor who befriends him and tries to protect him. A knock-down physical and psychological battle rages between the two men with the heart and soul of the boy the prize and murder at play. Even in the violence the sailor’s wisdom and humanity shine through, taking the story to an exploration of life’s deeper meaning. And like The Alchemist, the sailor leads the boy through a series of events, each with a life lesson, in a personal journey toward finding himself and his future, a narrative of inspiration and self-realization. Lush, evocative, and totally human the story reminds one that life is worth living and the search for one’s self is the most important search of all.

When itinerant cave diver James Tighe receives an invitation to billionaire Nathan Joyce's private island, he thinks it must be a mistake. But Tighe's unique skill set makes him a prime candidate for Joyce's high-risk venture to mine a near-earth asteroid--with the goal of kick-starting an entire off-world economy.

Strange sounds in the house, and objects which disappear or are mysteriously damaged all add to his fear that he is sliding into uncontrolled insanity again.
But is he? Or is his fragile mental state being manipulated by someone with a sinister agenda of their own?
When tragedy strikes, James must go on a journey that will force him to confront the past – and the haunted depths of his own tortured soul.

Perfect for an entry-level sci-fi reader and the ideal addition to a veteran fan’s collection, John Scalzi's Old Man’s War will take audiences on a heart-stopping adventure into the far corners of the universe.
John Perry did two things on his 75th birthday. First he visited his wife's grave. Then he joined the army.
The good news is that humanity finally made it into interstellar space. The bad news is that planets fit to live on are scarce-and aliens willing to fight for them are common. The universe, it turns out, is a hostile place.
So: we fight. To defend Earth (a target for our new enemies, should we let them get close enough) and to stake our own claim to planetary real estate. Far from Earth, the war has gone on for decades: brutal, bloody, unyielding.
Earth itself is a backwater. The bulk of humanity's resources are in the hands of the Colonial Defense Force, which shields the home planet from too much knowledge of the situation. What's known to everybody is that when you reach retirement age, you can join the CDF. They don't want young people; they want people who carry the knowledge and skills of decades of living. You'll be taken off Earth and never allowed to return. You'll serve your time at the front. And if you survive, you'll be given a generous homestead stake of your own, on one of our hard-won colony planets.
John Perry is taking that deal. He has only the vaguest idea what to expect. Because the actual fight, light-years from home, is far, far harder than he can imagine-and what he will become is far stranger.

Can They Stay Alive Long Enough to Regain Their Freedom?
Get ready to embark on an electrifying journey through the pages of The Sanctuary House Conquest, a heart-pounding supernatural thriller that merges suspense, politics, and faith into an explosive narrative.
This gripping novel masterfully blends the intrigue of a political thriller with supernatural elements, delivering an enthralling story of faith to captivate readers of all backgrounds.
In a nation that once stood united, a charismatic presidential candidate finds himself dethroned in a storm of disgrace, igniting a chain of events that forever alters the course of history. As the tides of power shift, a sinister wave of oppression sweeps over the land, targeting Christians with unprecedented brutality. The hushed whispers of religious persecution evolve into a full-fledged crackdown, forcing believers to make a harrowing choice: comply with the stringent laws imposed by a tyrannical regime or face the grim consequences.
For those who refuse to conform, there is no mercy. They are rounded up, corralled like cattle, and forcibly transported to a reeducation camp nestled within the abandoned confines of a military base. Under the watchful eyes of the military, the tenets of their faith are systematically dismantled.
The air is thick with a sense of dread as the nation's Christians are vilified and branded as enemies of the state, their beliefs twisted into something unrecognizable. The weight of oppression suffocates their cries for help, and the darkness of the times threatens to swallow them whole.
Amidst this turmoil, a resilient group of believers, including the once-prominent presidential candidate, manages to stage a daring escape from the camp's clutches. Their journey to freedom is fraught with danger, as a determined military squad led by the narcissistic Major Turner closes in on them. The clash between these factions becomes a battleground where principles of faith and loyalty collide with the ruthless pursuit of power.
Fast forward ten years. A group of high school students are tasked with unearthing the truth behind the events of the Dark Days.
The narrative weaves together diverse characters, each intricately connected to the cataclysmic events that unfolded. A mother, once reeducated and stripped of her faith, rediscovers her spiritual convictions. A driven reporter, nursing a vendetta against Major Turner, inadvertently sets in motion a chain of events that could spell doom for all involved. And a high school class, driven by an insatiable hunger for truth, may hold the key to unearthing the essence of true freedom.
For fans of suspense books with a twist, The Sanctuary House Conquest is an unmissable read. It transcends genres, combining a mystery thriller, a political suspense novel, and a tale of dystopian struggle. Appealing to adults and teens alike, it beckons to lovers of end-times novels, dystopian fiction and anyone who appreciates a well-crafted novel.
With prose that crackles with tension and characters that leap off the page, is a testament to the power of Christian fiction in the realm of suspense and intrigue. It challenges readers to question their own convictions, to reflect on the fragility of freedom, and to consider the lengths they would go to protect the values they hold dear. Prepare to be swept away on a rollercoaster of emotion, as you bear witness to a battle that is not just for survival, but for the very soul of a nation.
