Let me add my whole-hearted recommendation of Lawrence Block's books.
There are three series:  5 books about Bernie Rhodenbarr the master
burglar, 5 books about Matthew Scudder the alcoholic ex-cop unlicensed
detective, and 7 books about Evan Tanner, the Neversleeping spy and
lover of lost causes.  I've read 5, 3, and 1 of these respectively,
and enjoyed them all.  He also has a collection of short stories
titled _Sometimes They Bite_, which includes some wonderful twist
endings, and a Rhodenbarr and Scudder short story (different stories).
