So… what are you reading/watching?
(Sorry it took me so long to get this post here… there were bandwidth issues this morning and then I had to go into work and not even get half of what I needed to get done done).
As expected, I finished Ghost Story
Short, spoiler-free review: Changes left me wanting to stalk Jim Butcher in order to get more info. Ghost Story left me thinking that that I was satisfied and could wait a year for the next one.
Reading “Abraham Lincoln and the Second American Revolution” by James McPherson.

Reading Dead Beat.
Reading Demystifying Syria, but realizing that with only two weeks to prepare for classes I really need to finish reading Preventing Catastrophe: The Use and Misuse of Intelligence in the Efforts to Halt the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction.
It ain’t all so serious, though. I just finished re-reading Hunt for Red October. Whatever you think of Tom Clancy, it’s an astounding first novel.
Agreed. Red Storm Rising is fun too, but it’s all downhill from there.
If you liked “Red Storm Rising” then you should go read Larry Bond, because most of the action scenes in RSR were transcripts of Bond and Clancy playing Avalon Hill wargames, and Bond is the champion of “novelized wargame transcript”.
Finished Ghost Story, back to Dance with Dragons.
I’ll have a full spoiler thread up in a week or so. (Unless there are objections.)
