The Dragon Reborn by Robert Jordan
It's official, I love this series. This one was far more interesting because Rand isn't in it as much. I like the interaction between the stories. Jordan does an excellent job of making the stories intertwine. I'm a big fan. I don't know how I feel about Moriane or the rest of the Aes Sedai, but I think I'm happy not knowing. Can't wait for more!
The Forever War by Joe Haldeman
This is the first military novel I've ever read other than Ender's Game and I don't technically count that book. After working with the US Marine Corps for about a year, it was an interesting read. They didn't explain a lot of "things military," but I was able to follow most of it.
I enjoyed this book very much. The premise is that it's a Vietnam War story but instead of across the Pacific, the soldiers go across the universe. It helped me understand how the soldiers felt when they got home. The country had changed, it was hard to re-assimilate into civilian life.
Goes in my recommend pile, but only if you understand military life. It doesn't explain all things military so it can be confusing.
Next up is Margaret Attwood's newest book.
Hobey ho!
