Sure, we're always fast to RECOMMEND a book or shower it with glowing praise. But how about the
worst book you've ever forced yourself to read?
My money is still on Ed Offley's
Scorpion Down. So horribly pompous, boring, and filled with

-inducing twists of logic. The review I wrote of it on another site is even more bitter than the one I wrote for it here. I basically summarized it by saying that the author was pissing on the graves of 99 sailors for his own financial gain. Apparently, a woo-woo site by the name of militarycorruption.com picked up on this review recently, and called me a hysterical disinformation agent working in upper levels of the Pentagon, under the personal payroll of George W Bush. Sorry to dissapoint you folks, but I'm just a civilian who happens to enjoy using my brain.
Runner up would probably be Patrick Robinson's
USS Scorpion, which I don't remember much of besides being a tedious racist diatribe against the Chinese.
