Just finished Norman Friedman's Fighters over the Fleet. Wrote a review for Amazon if anyone's curious.

Just starting Our Bones Are Scattered: The Cawnpore Massacres and the Indian Mutiny of 1857, by Andrew Ward.
It took me a month to finish the last book. This one may take even longer.

Just read »Children of time« by Adrian Tchaikovsky. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...ildren-of-time
When you are into science fiction, this one is a must. Best book i read for a long time. The title does not do the book justice at all though. I'll treat certain creatures with more respect after reading that

Currently reading 'Pride Runs Deep' by R. Cameron Cooke, on Chapter 6 so far. This book seriously got off on a really good start and I can't wait to see what's next on the page. Really enjoying it.
This topic has some great suggestions, I'm going have to look up 'Iron Coffins' for my next read. |

I'm reading Castles of Steel, by Robert K. Massie. It's about the British vs German navies during WW1. I have some trouble putting it down.

I just finished reading the most recent edition of Ewan Corlett's The Iron Ship: The Story of Brunel's SS Great Britain a couple days ago. I wrote a review on Amazon if anyone's interested in reading it: https://www.amazon.com/review/RU7TGQ...SIN=0952632330

I just published my review of Jutland 1916: The Archaeology of a Naval Battlefield. Translation: there's a foot of snow on the ground, and have nothing better to do!
