I've started in on the Flashman series by George MacDonald Fraser. Have completed so far

FLASHMAN
ROYAL FLASH
and FLASH FOR FREEDOM.

The man gets more action than James Bond, Mike Hammer, and Mick Jagger combined. Oh, and the tales are hilarious and outrageously politically incorrect!

I just completed, “The Shadow of The Wind.” It was terrible and I would not recommend it to anyone.

Recently finished

Dragons of Dwarven Depths by the same Authors

After I’m done with this one, will read the other 2 books in this series, and then decide what to read next.

[PrairieRoot]

Wow, some really heavy, heady books for thought listed by various posters. I’d like to lists some of my impressive reading but the porn sites I visit don’t have too much text...hahahahaha........just joking

Slowly reading Shadow Warriors by Kenneth Timmerman--about ten pages a day are enough to put me in a foul mood and raise my blood pressure.

Next in line is After the Reich (Giles & Mcdonough), which will return me to a time frame I understand.

And, once I week (if my postal worker hasn't rerouted it to one of the liberals on the block) the Weekly Standard.

[Savage Beast]

I love these threads--pick up some terrific ideas.

I just finished reading Raymond Chandler's The Long Goodbye" and Samuel Shellabarger's Prince of Foxes. I loved Prince! Now I'm reading Shellabarger's The King's Cavalier.

Shadow Warriors: The Untold Story of Traitors, Sabotuers and the Party of Surrender, by Ken Timmerman. Infuriating book...I don’t know who to be the more furious with; the traitors in our own administration and media or the gutless people who let them get away with it. GRRRRR!!!

Brunelleschi's Dome by Ross King

No, it's not about an Italian guy with a big head...

[Verloona Ti]

I started vol 1 of Paedia by Werner Jaeger back when you last asked-I am now on page 15 of vol 3. I am also rereading Will Durant's Life of Greece; the two seem to supplement each other very nicely.

Durant's popular History of Civilization gets a lot of criticism, but I find it unsurpassed for giving one a framework for reading history-it really makes it easy for visualization. More technical or more scholarly books can then be read to 'fill in the details'.

I am also rereading Robert Holdstock's Mythago Woods-the first and IMO the best in that series. (The Hollowing wasn't too bad, but I disliked Lavondyss.

Just a ping to show how many people are currently reading “Liberal Fascism”. Started your copy yet? I've been reliving my childhood by slogging through the entire Narnia series. I have just “The Last Battle” left. I'd forgotten most of them - but then it has been 40+ years. ;o(

[RenegadeNC]

Re-reading C.S.Lewis’s “The Great Divorce”.

Steve:
There is a book I would like to write someday. It is the story of my father's life before I came into the world. As a young man, he worked with his father installing Otis Elevators in China, got a BS in Mechanical Engineering at night from Michigan State, worked as an airline pilot for China National Airlines Company, flew the Hump for the Army Air Force as a civilian pilot in the CBI. Married in '45 at age 39. Three years later, I came into the world.
We went to Asia where he worked for the Army/State Department. I think it could be a good yarn.
