The Nicholas Linnear/Ninja Cycle series is a long-running sequence of thrillers that started with The Ninja in 1980 and continued through The Miko (1984), White Ninja (1990), The Kaisho (1993), Floating City (1994), and Second Skin (1995). After nearly two decades away, the series returned with The Death and Life of Nicholas Linnear in 2014 and The Oligarch’s Daughter in 2016.
Eight books in total make up the series, and the original six came out at a fairly steady clip during the 1980s and 1990s. Readers who enjoy action thrillers with martial arts elements and espionage will find a lot to dig into here, especially in the core run from The Ninja through Second Skin.
