I remember reading The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, by John Godey, back when I was probably barely old enough to be reading thrillers, but I liked it. I have no idea whether my adult self would like it, nor whether it will have managed to withstand the test of time, but I may find out :), since it has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle US right now.
However, be careful, there is an earlier edition that won’t show up as already purchased on the book’s webpage (!!!), only in your Library, so check carefully before you buy…
