Recently finished Persian Fire by Tom Holland. A very good read about the rise of the Persian empire and their battle with the Greeks. I'm now reading 1421 The Year China Discovered America by Gavin Menzies, very interesting.

I'm reading "The Art Of War" by Sun Tzu (Special Edition). I read this book every January. I love it!!

I just finished The Screwtape Letters by CS Lewis. Now I'll try and make sense of the Abolition of Man. I think I get smarter just looking at the book cover.

The Brass Verdict by Michael Connelly

A christmas gift from my step-mom who is my partner in literary gluttony.

I forgot how much I love a good legal drama.

Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin

Re: What are you reading?
 

I just finished The Keepsake by Tess Gerritsen. Another winner. :tu
I just started Hell's Kitchen by Jeffrey Deaver (writing as William Jeffries).

Re: What are you reading?
 

Just added The Keepsake to the Library collection, but I still have to read her last one-I like to read her in order.

Glad to see ther is another Michael Connelly fan here Miss Kitty. If you like Harry Bosch then you will like Ian Rankin's series with Inspector John Rebus.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Me, too. Just prior to The Keepsake, I read The Bone Garden. Also good but I liked The Keepsake better.

I'm also a Connelly/Bosch fan. I'll have to check out Ian Rankin. Any suggested order or first one to read?

Re: What are you reading?
 

I read them in order-the first few are short novels, and the entire 15 or 16 book series sort of develops his personal relationships-as well as leads up to his retirement.

Thanks.

Semper Fi: Stories of the United States Marines from Boot Camp to Battle by
Clint Willis (Editor)

Re: What are you reading?
 

Just finished Sixty Days and Counting by Kim Stanley Robinson. He is entirely too optimistic but it made a nice capper on the trilogy.

Next up I'll try to finish C.J. Cherryh's Port Eternity. I'm about halfway through it, I kind of lost it for a few days.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I just finished The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon. One of the strangest books I've come across and I'm not sure what to think of it. It got under my skin, but not necessarily in a good way.

Re: What are you reading?
 

"The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Re: What are you reading?
 

Finished Trunk Music by Connelly, read Cornwell's Sharpe's Fortress, now reading Sharpe's Trafalgar and next is Wally Lamb-I know this Much Is True. I have never read one of his books.

Planning ahead for golf season, I'm working my way through Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible.
