forcebwithu Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Gave up on Konrath's latest in the Jack Daniels series. When he writes from the bad guy's perspective he uses a lot of SMS/Twitter shorthand and #hashtag references in place of English words. Found that writing style very distracting and too annoying to continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lantern Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Last time I was over in Patts I picked up a great read @ Canterbury Tales. It was called "Outlaws Inc" written by Matt Potter. It's a factual representation of the time the Soviet Union was collapsing and the things some of the military forces were getting up to, Particularly a group of guys who literally stole one of the Ilyushin Il-76 planes and went freelance on the open and black market. I found it to be one of those "hard to put down" sort of books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycoll Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Joe Abercrombies latest. Full of blood, violence and a certain amount of crude sex. All in all a very pleasant read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Spice Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I knew about this since long time, Werner Von Brau being a famous name, but I didn't realize the extend and size of this operation. Very small book, but gives several good insights on the background and reasons of it. Nasa "american" scientists....😁😁😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
