    Just finished Master of War: Blackwater USA's Erik Prince and the Business of War. 3/5 stars. It was a quick read and not a lot of depth. Just started Civilian Warriors: The Inside Story of Blackwater and the Unsung Heroes of the War on Terror. So far much better. I'd recommend the later if you're interested in reading up on Blackwater.

    In the middle of Civilian Warriors myself. Good so far.

    Finally finished the wheel of time series. Somewhat dissapointed with the ending, but damn it was a great ride, been reading those books for nearly 15 years.

    Just started mistborn by sanderson, pretty good so far.

    If you guys want some cool fiction read Clive Cussler and James Rollins. Both real good authors.

    Reading the latest Stephen Hunter book "Snipers Honor". If you have never read any of his books I strongly reccomend him as an author.

    Check out Stephen Hildreth's first book - http://www.amazon.com/First-Bayonet-...+first+bayonet
    The First Bayonet, excellent book for his first one and you can get it free if you have a Kindle and a prime membership.

    Also in the same vein Mark Greaney's "Gray Man" series is pretty good

    Currently reading The Man in the High Castle by Phillip K Dick. I don't remember why I picked it up, but I think because it was free and I thought I'd give the author another shot. It is interesting in that it is in a world where Germany and Japan won World War II and now Americans are second class citizens across the world. Someone with great knowledge of World War II (Ronin) may actually take more from the book than I do, as they will be more familiar with all the people, places, and events mentioned.

    I'm reading Eminent Plague, by Don Lowell.

    I know the author. Seems okay so far.

    "Sniper's Honor" by Stephen White is an excellent read, I finished it in two days.
