You will not be disappointed with that one, thats for sure. A bloody good read that book.

Hi STEED

I've only made it thru the forword part. It seems every time I pick it up the phone rings or someone knocks on the door.

Just started reading this myself.

I ran out of reading material and picked up Iron Coffins, which I'd read a while back, to leaf through for a while and now I'm hooked on reading it through a second time. I'm actually enjoying it more the second time. The first time I'd only been playing SH3 for a little while; now I have a bit of an eye to pick up details from watch routines to attack setups etc.

I think I read it 3 times in a month. Great book.

Lol, actually, toilet was my favorite place to read it. Must be the stink. :hmm: You know, immersion.

Remind me not to borrow any books off you.

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

FIREWALL · 02-29-08, 11:57 AM

Well Gang I've gotten to read alittle more of Iron Coffins.

I tried Dowlys trick of useing the rain locker.

But now my wife wants to take me to the doctor because I sit in there to long.

I'm gonna have to find some other hideout.

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.

If you're in to that sort of thing, btw I recommend Simon Scarrow's series of novels on the Roman legions, starts with Under the Eagle IIRC.

Rotary Crewman · 03-22-08, 01:51 PM

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.
