What's on your reading list?

As it’s been said before, the mind is the sharpest weapon. So, what are you doing to stretch yours? I don’t read much, but when I do, I have a habit of getting sucked into a book and not putting it down until it’s done (I finished Metro 2035 in about 4 days). Right now I’m reading “On Killing”, by Dave Grossman, but this one has taken me longer, as it’s quite dry. Interesting, but a little slower than some other books. After that, I plan on reading “Blackwater” by Jeremy Scahill, and eventually Neil Gaiman’s “Norse Mythology”. What’s everybody else working through right now? What’s next?

I’m reading about Soviet tactics in Afghanistan. After that I’ll read about the same operations but from the viewpoint of the Mujahadeen. Very interesting series and a lot of great lessons in fighting an enemy with superior tech and numbers.

How we perceive our enemy will largely determine how we fight against him. Unless we grasp how the devil fits into God’s scheme of things, we will find it difficult to stand against his conspiracy against us personally and his influence within our culture. We can have a proper theology of the devil only if we have a proper theology of God. Only when we stand in awe of God will we find it unnecessary to be in awe of Satan. As Martin Luther once said, ‘The devil is God’s devil.’ God is still in control.

I used to read a lot… Steven Hawking, Ernest Thompson Seton, David Gemmell
It was quite a list… but now I read only what is here, Instagram, facebooger (I follow Michael Yon and others)
The reason being is that I have taken up writing myself. I am refining my 3rd book at the moment, but have 6 planned. 4 and 5 have been started.
I had these books / stories in my head for decades and decided one day to write them. I am not published. I do not know how to even go about it.
Extremely violent, sexual, fantasy… in modern times. Hahhahhaa
I was told when I was in middle school that I should never bother to write because what I wanted to write about was to dark… and, I have dyslexia. So… I suppressed it.
Thank goodness for computers and spell check! Hahhahahhaaa
