The Athena Project by Brad Thor
(Atria, 9781439192955; CD, 9781442335783)

Move aside Charlie’s Angels! From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor comes a brand new series starring Delta Force’s newest members: four fearsome, deadly, and incredibly skilled women from a top-secret, all-female program codenamed The Athena Project. When a terrorist attack in Rome kills more than twenty Americans, Athena team members Gretchen Casey, Julie Ericsson, Megan Rhodes, and Alex Cooper are tasked with hunting down the Venetian arms dealer responsible for providing the explosives. But there is more to the story than anyone knows.

And, now for the fun movie news:

Warner Bros. has acquired feature rights to develop Brad Thor’s Scot Harvath novels, starting with The Lions of Lucerne (Pocket, 9780743436748, December 2010) and The Athena Project.
