Read it when I was 13 in about '84. Read it a few times since. A book that will always stick with me.

Wow! I completely agree, wodin. It's been 20 years since I've read it, but it was a powerful and moving experience. [&o]

Just got into WH40K and demolished in three weeks NightLords Omnibus, Ultramarines Omnibus, Blood Angels Omnibus Vol 1 and nearly finished Vol2. I have Grey Knights Omnibus, The Founding Omnibus and The Saint Omnibus to go:)

Loving it and after the last god knows how many years reading only WW1 and WW2 fiction and Non Fiction it's a refreshing change.

"Demolishing the Myth: The Tank Battle at Prokhorovka, Kursk, July 1943: An Operational Narrative" by Valeriy Zamulin.

Pretty heavy reading but an excellent book from the Soviet perspective.

Listening to the audio book version of The Rising Sun: The Decline and Fall of the Japanese Empire, 1936-1945, John Toland. It's 41 hours, but so far(3 hours in) it seems worth it.

Please let me know what you think of it.

I read his Norway 1940 - a paperback printed in 1991. A good book if I recall correctly.

I'm reading 'A Mad Catastrophe: The Outbreak of World War I and the Collapse of the Habsburg Empire' by Wawro.

Conrad was Incompetent with a capital I. It's heart to find anything he did right.

I just finished Collision of Empires: War on the Eastern Front in 1914 and that author didn't paint in a very good light either.
