Forever Peace by Joe Haldeman.
I tried to read Armageddon's Reef, part one of the Safehold series, David Weber, I think. It was awful. Just plain torturous.
Just finished Armor by John Steakly. Loved it.

Finished Storm of Swords ... these books are good just so long.

Re: What are you reading?
 

"Life at the Speed of Light" by J Craig Venter. A review of the history and some current trends in genetic engineering. His description of the creation of the first synthetic cell offers an in depth look at the way science is done. Parts of the book are a little over my head but it is written for the layman and anyone who has any interest in biology can get most of it.

I agree. They are good though. I am 700 pages into A Dance with Dragons right now.

Just finished Persuader by Lee Child
Started The Forgotten by Faye Kellerman

Re: What are you reading?
 

Finished up the Thrawn Trilogy, Dark Force Rising and The Last Command by Timothy Zahn.
I blew through Gone (Michael Bennet #6) by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge in 2 days.
Onto reading Year Zero by Rob Reid right now.
We set a goal for our daughter to read 20 minutes every night which is also helping my reading move along too.

That is great! This is the best thing for encouraging kids to read that will last a lifetime.

Nearly pulled the trigger on the nook version of Let My People Go Surfing by Yvon Chouinard. I've been wanting to read it for a long time but never seem to actually read it. I've yet to figure out what personal deficiency is responsible for this. lol
Guess I'll go bit it and start reading it tonight. :)

Re: What are you reading?
 

I just started "A Storm of Swords", the third in the 'Song of Ice and Fire' series (Game of Thrones to those unfamiliar with it).

Re: What are you reading?
 

Working my way through that myself. Really digging the series. Im jumping between Game of Thrones and "The Audacity of Hops" by Tom Acitelli. Great book on the history of American craft beer.

Re: What are you reading?
 

The Fall of Carthage, Adrian Goldsworthy. One of his older works I missed, excellent read!

Re: What are you reading?
 

An old novel called "Genesis" by W.A. Harbinson. UFO's that may NOT necessarily be of extraterrestrial origin....Pretty interesting so far

Re: What are you reading?
 

"Why Is the Penis Shaped Like That?: And Other Reflections on Being Human" by Jesse Bering
Series of essays on evolutionary physiology and psychology. Easy read with some interesting facts about behaviors that aren't generally discussed in polite company. A little anarky on the subject of religion which I could have done without but overall a good read.

The Historical Jesus: Five Views by James K. Beilby

Re: What are you reading?
 

The Pagan Lord ( most recent in the Saxon Tales )

by Bernard Cornwell

Re: What are you reading?
 

Finished Let My People Go Surfing ... good read and the first 2/3 were really interesting. The last 1/3 was pretty preachy but as long as you know that going in (which I'd imagine you would of you know who Yvon Chouinard is) I think it's an all around good read.

Just started The Gold Standard by Mike Krzyzewski. :)

Re: What are you reading?
 

Brave New Worlds. It's a collection of short stories from various authors about dystopian societies. "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson is one, to give you an idea of what's in there. Some of them are pretty damn depressing, but are interesting reads. Even though it's fiction, it gives you perspective on how fortunate we are in this reality to enjoy our freedom.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Lone Survivor

Re: What are you reading?
 

I'm getting ready to start that one myself.

Currently working on The Strain by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan. Easy read, the kind of story that you can just read along without having to give much thought to the characters or their motivations.
