the last bits of books read (including ebooks)

Phules Company series. (Buddy of mine in the Army got me started on them. EXCELLENT read for a quasi military setup with a ton of humor. And of course, the hero sticking it to the system, AND to the enemy). ROFLMAO!

Harry Potter book 6. Plan to reread that entire series. Right before going to the movies for watching Ep 4. ROFL. But need to find an ebook on Book 6. Got the other 5, just need 6. And I don't want to waste my days doing OCR and corrections / proof reading! LOL.

A Hymn Before Battle (book 1)
Gust Front (book 2) ... Both are by John Ringo, also available at www.baen.com/library ... EXCELLENT reads. Far more realistic in terms of military set up. Wonderful alternate universe, a bit reminiscent of Starship Troopers. But only vaguely. It's 'present day', and lots of things going BOOM. Oh, and power suits/armor. /grin/ Carrying Rail Guns.

I just finished Gust Front about 2 days ago, and haven't yet settled on my next target. I'll find one soon enough. My wife has her own personal library, in paperbook format, and that's with 5 boxes still unloaded. /sigh/ /laughs/
