I'm in the middle of Vlad by C.C. Humphreys.
A totally different take on the Dracul family and Vlad the Impaler specifically.
If you are into Transylvanian history, and the legend of Dracula, this one might interest you.
I hear they're making a movie off of it. I'm not looking forward to that. Besides Lord of The Rings, every book I've ever seen adapted to a movie was TERRIBLE, and just made me angry as I watched it.

Really? The nerd in me disliked how they left out a lot of the book. I'm hoping they don't chop up the hobbit.
Just finished The Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson. I failed but I highly recommend the book. Starting on The Dream of Scipio by Iain Pears.

I'm currently reading The Edge by Jeffery Deaver. It's alright, but doesn't have Deaver's usual psycho edge.
I just bought a pristine second hand copy of Azincourt by Bernard Cornwell. Can't wait to read about that bloody little fiasco from his perceptive perspective.
"To the Stars" by Harry Harrison. It's setting is 200 years after the last oil on earth was extracted & used. British Airways operates dirigibles. Our generation is referred to as the "Wreckers" for how we pillaged & wasted Earth's resources.

One of these days I'll have to take and post a picture of all the Harry Harrison books I have on one of my shelves. Might even be a couple of first editions in there.

I think I stashed them near the Heinleins
There are some feisty Viking & Irish genes in my DNA and my idea of heaven is Deathworld.
