Welcome to the official website of author Barry Eisler. If you like edge-of-your seat action, exotic locations, realistic spycraft, steamy sex, and protagonists who are "the stuff great characters are made of" (Entertainment Weekly), you've come to the right place...
Excited to say that the page for The Detachment is up! The digital is an Amazon exclusive. The digital audiobook download (narrated by me, same as Inside Out) is available exclusively through Amazon and affiliates (Brilliance and Audible). In addition, the trade paperback is now available wherever books are sold, and likewise for the CD version of the audiobook.

"Eisler combines the insouciance of Ian Fleming, the realistic detail of Tom Clancy, the ennui of Graham Greene and the prose power of John le Carré."
News-Press
"In his superb thriller series featuring charismatic Japanese-American assassin John Rain, author Barry Eisler serves up steamy foreign locales, stunning action and enough high tech weaponry to make for an A-plus read."
New York Daily News
"Furious and creative... Rain's combination of quirks and proficiency is the stuff great characters are made of."
Entertainment Weekly
"No one is writing a better thriller series today than Barry Eisler. He has quickly jumped into my top ten best American mystery/thriller writers, along with Michael Connelly, Lee Child, Walter Mosley, and Harlan Coben... Rating: A."
Deadly Pleasures
"Written with a delightfully soft touch and a powerful blend of excitement, exotica and what (ever since John le Carré) readers have known to call tradecraft."
The Economist
