Tons of pics and some drawings, all in German ![]()
Nice. I have the previous edition. It’s a really nice book. Very well structured.
Re-reading ‘A Canticle for Leibowitz’
Just my opinion, but one of those sci-fi books that every fan of the genre needs to read at least once.
Blow Back by James Patterson - Brendon DuBois si-fi fun, easy to read.
After reading @chipwich Dan’s recommendation for Palace Cobra by Ed Rasimus, I figured I would start with is first book ‘When Thunder Rolled’ . Highly recommend! I just finished it today.
Palace Cobra is next!
He was on my flight to Nice yesterday! I talked to him but didn’t know who I was talking to until a flight attendant later told me.
Anyone have a copy of Palace Cobra with viewable photos? My copy seems rather poorly printed, as in like this: image|375x500
I have a kindle copy and I don’t believe it has any photos at all. Hmm
I gave away my copy years ago, but it looked like that. Paperback. Not sure if there was a better version?
I just strated with it, good read.
I’ll check mine tonight, but I fear it isn’t better.
Early chapters with this one, but liking the author and narrator so far.
Thank you. Would you mind showing the other images please?
I just finished up Spearhead by Adam Makos. It’s about the the 3rd Armored Division in WW2, going through France, Belgium and into Germany.
It’s quite an interesting read.
Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to do that.
No problem, it just took a minute.
Sadly my scanner isn’t operational right now, the quality would be another tad better I guess. But the phone did a decent job.
Currently trying to read William Gibsons ‘The Peripheral’ but its not letting me in.
I am a huge fan of Neuromancer and it’s sequels as well as the later bridge trilogy. “The sky was the color of a TV tuned to a dead channel.”
But this… there’s so much stuff and names and non-explanation. I feel like I’m on the sidelines of a conversation between kids or technicians speaking a language I only partially understand. At least not the important bit. I just have no idea what’s going on!
Have I become too dumb, my mind too old and ossified to enjoy this sort of “plop you into the pool” sort of scifi?
Which reminds me I want to read it too…
Do you have it in English or Dutch?
