Just finished the Guns Of August last week.

Absolutely superb read. Its a dramatic retelling of the early days of World War 1. However, it reads almost like a soap opera with the author creating really vivid characters and situations, all very true to the actual events.

Even though we all know the outcome, the susoense is masterful and will keep you hooked. I'm a bit of a military history buff and found a real appeal in its non-technical, dramatic approach and I am sure anyone without such interests would still find it a cracking read.
