Much better commute time today, and I'm getting dug into Harry Turtledove's World War series, courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] wyvernfriend's husband. Manky weather again - cold, breezy, and a sort of a wet drizzle down over everything.

I used animate dead on mine. Zombie umbrellas are ugly, but they still keep the rain off.

'm on book 4. Enjoying hugely. Didn't think I'd enjoy anything in this genre but I am. Don't even mind dearth of female characters.

Is it the sci-fi/history that's grabbing you, or the sci-fi/tactics?

Cos if sci-fi/tactics is the interest, I can't recommend David Weber's Honor Harrington books highly enough...

The World War series where we are all merrilly fighting each other in WW2 and aliens come down to invade? I really enjoy those!!! And yet, for some reason, anyone I talk to about reading these books says it sounds dumb. I must be doing something wrong.

What I like about the books is the way he follows several characters through the plot, so you see the same stuff from different points of view.
