I've got Wool too, struggling to get through it. At the moment reading Gordon R. Dickson's second book of Dragon Knight series. Not normally a huge fan of fantasy but this one is fun.This message has been edited. Last edited by: PHPaul, Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

D-Day by Stephen Ambrose. EXCELLENT read about the D-Day landings in Normandy. Full of first-person accounts, enemy and allied points of view, etc. He is an outstanding author. The book is 700+ pages long, but it's a very easy read. . . Fear God and Dread Nought Admiral of the Fleet Sir Jacky Fisher | |||

Encounter in Rendlesham Forest by Nick Pope, John Burroughs USAF (Ret) and Jim Penniston USAF (Ret) another classic UFO incident to add to my collection, one of the greatest in fact!  Regards, Will G. | |||

Just finished Artemis by Andy Weir. I figured it would be tough to equal his book The Martian and, while Artemisstarted strong, IMO, it ran out of gas and was tough to finish. I also just read Mayflower by Nathaniel Philbrick and thought it was excellent. I'm just about to leave for vacation and picked up Xenophon's Cyrus the Great: The Arts of Leadership and War which was recommended by Ryan Holiday. _____________________________________________________________________ “One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” – Thomas Sowell | |||

I read Philbrick's The Last Stand, about the battle of the Little Big Horn, last year and it was very good. | |||
