Post away on this thread to talk about your favorite NON-MILITARY books.

Stephen King and Terry Pratchett are two favourites of mine. Reading the last book in the Dark Tower series of Kings - been a damn good series of books. Terry Pratchett's Discworld comedy/fantasy books are also very good.

"Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas" by Hunter S. Thompson.
"Of Mice and Men" by John Steinback.
"Tattoo" by Chris McKinney

Can anyone give me some advice? I,m trying to ficnd military pubs and literature pertaining to military psyops?

Some more good books. A few classics as well!

"MANTRAPPINGS" by Ragnar Benson
"LUA. Art Of The Hawaiian Warrior" by Richard Kekumuikawaiokeola Paglinawan
"FRANKENSTEIN" by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
"DRACULA" by Bram Stoker
"THE STRANGE CASE OF DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE" by Robert Louis Stevenson
"ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN" by Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens)
"ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER" by Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens)
"WHERE THE RED FERN GROWS" by Wilson Rawls
"TIME MACHINE" by H. G. Wells
"AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS" Jules Verne
"TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD" by Harper Lee
"LORD OF THE FLIES" by William Golding
"THE CATCHER IN THE RYE" by J.D. Salinger
"BRAIN DROPPINGS" by George Carlin
"NAPALM & SILLY PUTTY" by George Carlin
"WHEN WILL JESUS BRING THE PORK CHOPS?" by George Carlin

For non-fiction/history, try A DISTANT MIRROR--THE CALAMITOUS 14TH CENTURY by Barbara W. Tuchman or THE BLACK DEATH--NATURAL AND HUMAN DISASTER IN MEDIEVAL EUROPE by Robert S Gottfried. Both of them will remind you to appreciate indoor plumbing, if nothing else

American Gods is one of my favorites of all time. You can't go wrong with Neil Gaiman.

A really good new book on the market is "Coup" by J. Fordham Stanfield. As I understand it, the author wrote the book pre 911, but the book was updated for post 911. The interesting thing is it accurately describes what would need to happen for a coup to occur in the USA.

I highly recommend it.

Cliver Cussler..Dirk Pitt Novels...

Joel C. Rosenberg novels.. they are all riviting..to say the least.

If you like science fiction then this is the book for you. 'Princess of the Empire' is about Special forces, hot aliens, hand to hand combat, war in space, and she's a sexy weird werewolf to boot. The tactics and weapons are dead right since the author is retired Special Forces. He will pay half the shipping to deployed soldiers. It's a $15 book but only $12 from the author and only $14 shipped. You can read reviews and buy at xxxx. Check out the book blog at, Edited URL Violation of TOS#6
