What Have You Been Reading? (Listening)

I have returned to some of the older series. 

Just finished most of the books in the Spook Series by Joseph Delaney. 

It is where the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son VS the supernatural. Magic is much more mundane,  and not swords & sorcery style.

Just start the Honor Harrington Series again. 

I love stories, in all forms & curious what people are reading.. (for fun.)

I guess some peeps might be reading stuff like 'challenging hydrodynamics through unravelling the mysteries of superfluids' I myself am a more  'Hello Tree' kinda peep but still curious.

Typically much heavy than I engage with for pleasure. Though I did finish "Rhetoric" by Aristotle a few weeks ago.

I find myself drawn to fiction written by military historians, but have a difficult time with the actual history or military theory/ doctrine.

I've know a few army cooks and the blurb you wrote had me rolling. A family member was apparently decent enough in the kitchen that they were assigned to a colonel staff & pretty much said the same thing.

If the fighting got bad enough to warrant him taking up arms.. he and the colonel were already trying to leave.

I'm currently re-reading The Gap Cycle by Stephen R. Donaldson. When I'm done with that I'm going to move on to the Vickery and Castine series by Tim Powers, which my wife informs me is not earth-shattering, but worth reading.

recently i read 'the guns of the south'. its an alt history where by the confederate states obtain ak-47s from time traveling white supremacists shortly after gettysburg. while the southerners are glad to be able to have a means to bring the war to an end, they are none too thrilled at being pawns of their benefactors from the future and their twisted agenda.
