Still the same books as last week. I don't think it was a good idea to start 3 books at once, I am probably going to focus of Bands of Mourning, which has become really interesting. Still have about 1/3rd of the book to go though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

My phone broke, so in the last week I read 8 books in the Executioner pulp series from the 70s, Larry Niven's "Destiny's Road", and Warthog: Flying the A-10 in the Gulf War.

I love Larry Niven's writing. In this book he created a lot of world, and there are corners that we never got to see. Good stuff.

Warthog was a really well-written book based on interviews right after the Gulf War. It's one of my favorite military planes. I got pretty attached to the pilots by the end of the book.

It's been great! since this post I've also read Skunk Works (About the Lockheed advanced research team) by Ben Rich, and The Brendan Voyage by Tim Severin (about an adventure to test if an Irish leather boat could have made it to North america past the Faroes, Iceland, and Greenland.).
