Bibliography
Novels
Not all of Coyle's books can be considered as part of the same series. Team Yankee is completely independent, while his other novels, use the same characters (for as long as those characters survive) and establish a partial "Coyleverse", which blends the novels' chronology with more "real-life" events.
- Team Yankee (1987) - The story of a US Army armored combat team's exploits during a fictional WW3 scenario covered in General Sir John Hackett's novel "The Third World War: August 1985"
- Sword Point (1989) - A novel describing a fictional "First Gulf War"/alternate "Third World War" scenario in which the US intervenes when the Soviet Union invades Iran.
- Bright Star (1990) - US forces intervene in a conflict between Egypt and Libya.
- Trial by Fire (1992) - An new and unpopular "equal opportunities" policy places a female mechanised infantry platoon leader in a situation where she must make her mark in a military confrontation between the USA and Mexico.
- The Ten Thousand (1993) - A US army corps led by a charismatic general must fight its way across a hostile Germany to the sea.
- Code of Honor (1995) - More than one of Coyle's primary characters are caught up in the political ramifications of a disastrous military operation in Columbia led by an incompetent General.
- Look Away (1995) (1st of the US civil war pair of novels)
- Savage Wilderness (1997)
- Until the End (1997) (2nd of the US civil war pair of novels)
- God's Children (2001) - A small group of American peacekeepers are alone against hundreds of Slovakians
- Dead Hand (2002) The title of the novel was drawn from a nickname for a Cold War era nuclear control system used by the USSR. (ISBN 0812575393; ISBN 978-0812575392)
- Combat, Volume 3: Combat (2002)
- Against All Enemies (2002)
- Victory, Volume 2: Into the Fire (2004)
- More Than Courage (2003)
- They Are Soldiers (2004)
