He directed The Road, another McCarthy novel so that makes sense. The last thing I saw of his was 'Lawless' with Tom Hardy which was ok but a little disappointing overall.

There's a series of five books (it's actually eighteen but the main series is the first five) called 'Necroscope' about a bloke who can talk to the dead and has to fight a bunch of ancient vampires.
It's bloody brilliant reading. Just the right amount of B-movie schlock horror stuff.
Exactly the sort of series Netflix would commission and then cancel after one season.

There's been talk of Robert Muchamore's CHERUB series being adapted for over 10 years now, but nothing has ever come of it. They did a decent job with Alex Ryder imho.
The Day after Roswell - Colonel Philip J. Corso
Mind blowing stuff , The Pentagons covert release of alien technology through private companies , such things as the microchip ,fibre optic cables and wires and night vision technologies .

Birds of prey, would make a decent film I think. I absolutely love the book anyway

One book that I've read recently, that IS being made into a film, and will be released in May next year is 'The Salt Path'
I'm planning to do that same walk (South West Coast path - it's approx 630 miles without any deviations)
Looking forward to it.

Any of my wife's. I'm not greedy, a couple hundred grand would suffice.

a few weeks ago I was reading Conclave by Robert Harris and thought “this could make a good film.
and it has been released as such a few days ago, and it is very good indeed.
