My Goodreads review of Armistice Day by David Drazul: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Kadin's review of Armistice Day
4/5: This novel has all the elements of a good sci-fi story: action, aliens, bleak landscapes, and conspiracy. It was also refreshing to read a story that doesn't immediately make alien overlords twis...

Thank you to everyone who tuned in to WGOL for Russellville football games this season:
Enjoying this book so far, even though Zoughbie incorrectly states twice that Truman was from Kansas. Someone missed that in the proofreading.
Congratulations to Exeter alumnus Dr Daniel Zoughbie (2008, DPhil International Relations), on the publication of his latest book, 'Kicking the Hornet’s Nest: U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East from Truman to Trump'.

Burns' six-part documentary uses voiceover, reenactors and drone footage to tell the story of America's founding. And it reminds viewers that the quest for a more perfect union is far from over. n.pr/4r1tHBC

Kadin's review of Archangel
4/5: You can always depend on Robert Harris to deliver an entertaining historical fiction thriller. This one is set after "the end of history" and pits the forces of remnant Soviet cold warriors again...

My Goodreads review of Red Rising by Pierce Brown: ⭐⭐⭐
Kadin's review of Red Rising (Red Rising Saga, #1)
3/5: Before reading, I was told that this book (series) was like Game of Thrones + Star Wars, which I have to say I think is a wrong comparison. It's more like Dune + Harry Potter: Dune because most o...
