If you like the Bourne films, read the books. The films sucks huge drippy Clydesdale schlong compared to the books. You have to read them in order ("Identity", "Supremacy", "Ultimatum").

I don't read any of the post-Ludlum collaborative or ghostwriter stuff. Here is the list of HIS books.

The Scarlatti Inheritance (1971)
The Osterman Weekend (1972)
The Matlock Paper (1973)
Trevayne (1973, writing under the pen-name Jonathan Ryder)
The Cry of the Halidon (1974, writing under the pen-name Jonathan Ryder)
The Rhinemann Exchange (1974)
The Road to Gandolfo (1975, writing under the pen-name Michael Shepherd)
The Gemini Contenders (1976)
The Chancellor Manuscript (1977)
The Holcroft Covenant (1978)
The Matarese Circle (1979) (this one was really good IIRC)
The Bourne Identity (1980)
The Parsifal Mosaic (1982) (also very good)
The Aquitaine Progression (1984)
The Bourne Supremacy (1986)
The Icarus Agenda (1988)
