Introduction Stray Bullet is an action-filled roleplaying game in the technothriller genre. The term "technothriller" was coined in the eighties, largely because Tom Clancy's novels could not be placed into any existing category. Nowadays, a lot of authors write novels that belong to the the technothriller genre. Dale Brown, Stephen Coonts, Harold Coyle, Richard Herman Jnr, Steve Pieczneik (with Tom Clancy) and Patrick Robinson are all good examples of technothriller authors.
