I'm reading "Thunder Below!" by Admiral Eugene Fluckey. It's been great thus far, I'm 3/4 done with it.

An eternity it seems, since I posted in this thread.
I just finished re-reading Dino Buzzati's "The Tartar Steppe" (first time since my teenage years) and finally - with delay - finished the triology by Philip Pullman, "His Dark Materials", and I just started to re-read Marc Aurel's "Meditations", and also just embarked on Machiavelli's "Discorsi" a week ago, liking it very much. I so far only read a superb biography on the man, whoch already shed a lot of light on his basic thinking. Easy to misunderstand him (most do), realistic thinking, no pleasure there to be found for emotional dreamers thinking the world hopefully will come to a better day all by itself if only people "mean it well". So, two nice books in the reading here, currently.

Reading 'The Generals'. Very good fiction/non-fiction on the same vein as Tiberius (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tiberius-All...6134072&sr=1-1 Easy read with alot of fact involved, great page turner which is hard to do for something that is over 500 pages. |

Yeah was thinking of getting some more Scarrow. But I think my next one might be the prequel to Generals. Young bloods
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Young-Bloods...212195&sr=8-11 My fiancée got me Generals and she didn't know there was a prequel. Which to be honest, I didn't until I saw it on Amazon. |
