When you finish it, let me know what you think. I've not read any of the Inspector Rebus books, but being a bit of an anglophile, I'm always interested in picking up a new detective series set in Britain. Among other books, I'm currently reading through Elizabeth George's Inspector Lynley series.Naming of the Dead: Ian Rankin
I was in high school (10th grade) when a classmate was reading Cussler. I hated reading basically because all the readings that were required in school were not "guy" books. All female English teachers. We read "girly" books.Poseidon's Arrow, Clive Cussler
2,300 years ago an unbeaten army of the West invaded the homeland of a fierce Eastern tribal foe. This is one soldier’s story . . .
The bestselling novelist of ancient warfare returns with a riveting historical novel that re-creates Alexander the Great’s invasion of the Afghan kingdoms in 330 b.c.
In a story that might have been ripped from today’s combat dispatches, Steven Pressfield brings to life the confrontation between an invading Western army and fierce Eastern warriors determined at all costs to defend their homeland. Narrated by an infantryman in Alexander’s army, The Afghan Campaign explores the challenges, both military and moral, that Alexander and his soldiers face as they embark on a new type of war and are forced to adapt to the methods of a ruthless foe that employs terror and insurgent tactics. An edge-of-your-seat adventure, The Afghan Campaign once again demonstrates Pressfield’s profound understanding of the hopes and desperation of men in battle and of the historical realities that continue to influence our world.
