Hi,
I've been writing in another genre, but I'm now trying modern day espionage.
I have a big (fist) fight scene coming up between a trained agent an angry crowd in a confined space.
Fight scenes are my strength in the other genre (where everyone had a sword) but I'm having a little trouble getting started with this.
I did a some googling and there seems to be a feeling that many authors gloss over the fight itself, but Ludlum's Borne books and Child's Reacher book do a very good job. I've not read either series.
Can anyone recommend a fight scene from either series or any other series that they think gets it right?
I'd like to see how the pros handle it.
Thanks!
