Just finishing the new 007 "Forever and a Day", which will be followed by another read of "Lonesome Dove", which I haven't read in more than 10 years. I have to read a couple of others for work but I won't count those.

Enki Bilal - Bug (2017)
Monsieur Bilal's latest graphic novel is a small masterpiece about the breakdown of our digital world. Suddenly people are forced to revert to old forms of communication and information distribution. This is part one and he's already working on part two. I saw the man on French television recently in which he said that a television adaptation of his story is already in production. Looking forward to it. |

I have an unfortunate habit or reading more than one book at a time; I can't seem to break it. So I am reading "A Dance With Dragons" which is the fifth volume in George RR Martin's Game of Thrones series; I am reading Philip Dwyer's "Citizen Emperor," the middle volume of a biography of Napoleon, and "A Magnificent Catastrophe" which is about the election of 1800 between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.

White Devil By Stephen Brumwell "An true story of War,Savagery and Vengeance in Colonial America" This is the story of the St Francis raid by Major Robert Rogers and his rangers,It details the background to raid and it's aftermath. On the 4th of October 1759,Roger's Rangers visited death and destruction upon the Abenaki Indians in their village of St Francis.In the fashion that They were accustomed to visit it upon the settlers of New England.This act was either just retribution or a white atrocity,Guess which way I vote ?

I managed to buy this last night - which is a Rare find ! - should be a good read ( its about Lesbianism ) School Life in Paris & Lovely Nights of Young Girls: This is Two collected Novels from the Victorian Underground ( first printed in 1897 ) apparently it is a Lesbian Novel . and the Author is Anonymous - but the 1970 book has Erotic illustrations by Tomi Ungerer . The Original First Book read " ONLY FIVE HUNDRED COPIES OF THIS WORK HAVE BEEN PRINTED for private circulation among the small circle of Sports, Amateurs and Scholars, who compose the MEMBERSHIP of the NEW YORK EROTICA BIBLION SOCIETY and the work will never be reprinted "- https://www.finebooksmagazine.com/fi...t-part-i.phtml https://www.finebooksmagazine.com/fi...-part-ii.phtml The above link(s) gives a fascinating insight into the Publisher , Grove Press who introduced the new Paperback line , Venus Library This book was re-published in New York by Grove Press in 1970. I bought this First Edition with 286 pages - and will scan a better front and rear cover when it arrives "A series of letters from Blanche, aged seventeen, who has just been sent to a Paris finishing school, to her Cousin Ethel, in England, with whom she had formerly been at school " Last edited by 73north; August 6th, 2018 at 07:59 AM.. |

Richard Morgan "Altered Carbon"
Four hundred years from now mankind is strung out across a region of interstellar space inherited from an ancient civilization discovered on Mars. The colonies are linked together by the occasional sublight colony ship voyages and hyperspatial data-casting. Human consciousness is digitally freighted between the stars and downloaded into bodies as a matter of course. But some things never change. So when ex-envoy, now-convict Takeshi Kovacs has his consciousness and skills downloaded into the body of a nicotine-addicted ex-thug and presented with a catch-22 offer, he really shouldn t be surprised. Contracted by a billionaire to discover who murdered his last body, Kovacs is drawn into a terrifying conspiracy that stretches across known space and to the very top of society. For a first-time SF writer to be so surely in command of narrative and technology, so brilliant at world-building, so able to write such readable and enjoyable SF adventure, is simply extraordinary.

McCullough's genius is writing so that readers discover new things without being told. What made the Wrights succeed where many others had failed? 1) Wilbur loved to watch birds for their science more than their beauty. 2) They both understood that math was the key to what they were trying to do. 3) The physical experience of managing flight was a critical necessity, whether in gliders or under power. Wilbur referred to it as "equilibrium". Their lives also revealed the need for water and sewage treatment. Orville had an almost-fatal bout of typhoid fever in the late 1890s, and typhoid fever killed Wilbur in 1912. |

Now called 'ethnic cleansing' Tracy went down in my estimation from No 1 to about joint 99 for ever making that film. Roberts also attacked the emerging Revolutionary Army... he was a Brit Colonial Master Race, after all. Bit confused about Mal's vote though.... |
