No Angel: My Harrowing Undercover Journey to the Inner Circle of the Hells Angels by Jay Dobyns ex ATF UC Officer
Good story. A little over the top maybe even if partially true but good read for a biography about UC work. |
Re: What are you reading?
Just finished "Parasite Rex" by Carl Zimmer. Fantastic book if a little creepy at times. Zimmer is an excellent science writer and this book about parasites (who apparently make up the majority of species) is written for the layman. The author has a blog I like and one of my favorite features is this. He asked one day in his blog if anyone had a science tattoo and the pictures started coming in so he set up a space for them and adds a new one every Friday.
Now I'm on to "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. Pretty dark as you'd expect from him. |
Re: What are you reading?
Picked up a book from the Alamo called 13 Days to Glory. So far its a pretty good read.

Re: What are you reading?
Courage and Honor, an Ultramarines novel by Graham Mcneill. Amazing writing, though a bit quiet compared to Storm of Iron, the last one I read, which was basically BATTLEBATTLEBATTLEBATTLEBATTLE the whole way through. The 40K universe makes for some good reading.

The Great Bridge by David McCullough. I wrote a term paper about the Brooklyn Bridge during a college urban history class. Now, I understand why the professor didn't seem all that impressed.

Re: What are you reading?
Right now I'm reading some of Edgar Allen Poe and a little H.P. Lovecraft. I also read lots of fan fiction, but honestly some of that barely gets past the third grade level, but it's an addiction

Currently reading "Never Tell Our Business To Strangers" by Jennifer Mascia.
Beginning was decent, but it's starting to drag out. Should be able to finish it off tonight though. |

I do most of my reading while smoking cigars on the back deck. Doesn't get much better than that! |

I guess I should have mentioned that I like the book so far. I'm one who's been searching for something comparable to Tolkien for some time. This book tries... we'll see... |

Re: What are you reading?
"Germania: In Wayward Pursuit of the Germans and Their History" by Simon Winder. It has lots of lore and ancient history about Germany that I never knew before, and now some aspects of German culture (and certain events between the late 1800s and 1945) are beginning to fall into place.
