Sword's Tavern

This is a book I finished up a few months ago, but am just now getting around to posting something about it.  It’s a non-fiction history lesson basically, explaining in great detail about Bin Laden, where he came from and how he came to be how he is today.  It also explains a lot about why his people look up to him as they do.  It was a long yet fascinating book that really helped explain the whole Extremist Islamic Movement.

Oh, and by the way, the Islamic terrorists are just that, terrorists, not “insurgents”.  Although I didn’t need this book to tell me that.

Well, I finally finished The Drawing Of The Three and am now working on book 3 of the Dark Tower series called The Waste Lands.  The first and second books have been awesome, although unlike anything I have read by King previously.  So, if you are a die hard King fan like me, be prepared for something different.  Great, but different.

This is one I am working on now, as of post date.  This is book two of the Dark Tower series and it’s very good so far.  Starts off quick, dropping you into the action and hasn’t let up yet.  I don’t want to give anything away, but great twists and turns.  Five more after this one to complete the series, but so far I recommend it highly.

I am an avid Stephen King fan, and so far I have truly enjoyed everything I have read by him. Some authors I run the gambit, some books I dig, some not as much. King, however, has been pretty darn consistent. The Gunslinger is the first book in the dark tower series. Great story, but it took me a few pages to get in sync with the style of the book. Once I was there, it was awesome.

I thought I would create a category, and then toss up some posts regarding what I am (and have been, might do some back fill) reading.  I love to share good stories and authors that I know about, have run across, etc.  Maybe I can share something that you haven’t seen yet and might like also.  That’s what this category is about.
