Two books recently completed:
"Monday the Rabbi Took Off", by Harry Kemelman. The fourth book in the "Rabbi Small" series, and very enjoyable, as have all the books been thus far. This book sees Rabbi Small go for an extended trick to Israel, where he gets involved in terrorist plots. Highly recommended!
"Planets of Adventure", by Murray Leinster. A Baen omnibus of Murray Leinster's stories, which I bought in 2003. Contains the novel "The Forgotten Planet", a series of related stories about a Colonial Survey Officer, Bordman, a "trouble shooter" for newly-colonised planets, and finally a group of miscellaneous stories. Excellent, and very highly recommended.
And that's 100 books for the year for me, which completes my "reading challenge" for the year some three months early, which is nice
