Sounds cool. Perhaps I will give it a look. I like picture you paint.
I no longer bus it to work, so I've lost my reading time.
Ughhh I think the last book I read was that lore book that goes with Game of Thrones. It was a nice read, and really good artwork. That actual throne is pretty damn cool looking.
Oh wait, I also read Red Rising. Pure pulp, but very fun. Like Harry Potter, but in space, with more killing.
Annnnd, there is Marko Kloos, Frontlines books. Not the best writing, but very good for people who love military scify. The guy clearly served at some point. His aliens are a really cool concept.
