AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Eh, different strokes for different folks.

Just read Darth Bane - Path of Destruction.
It ended a little something like this.

The little force-sensitive girl he found at the end is adorable. I can't wait for him to corrupt the shit out of her!

Next on your list needs to be Rule of Two and Dynasty of Evil. I enjoyed that trilogy.

I read Heart of Darkness over the last couple days. Very small novella, but it's a hard read, or at least it was for me. It made me feel the same dirty unease I got from watching Apocalypse Now, adapted from the book for those unaware. I got some rather silly pleasure from finding passages and events that were clearly transformed for the film.

I read the book, and watched the movie, and while both are good, I didnt really... get it? I mean, its creepy and all that, but neither really told me anything I didnt already know. Same thing with Lord Of the Flies, really. Basically, any story that I'm told is some sort of nihilistic journey just kinda falls flat, because its nothing I wasnt already expecting from real life people, much less fictional characters.

Ordered a few books off bookdepository: Dubliners, Ulysses, Finnegans Wake and the Gay Science are already here, whereas The Birth of Tragedy, Ecce homo, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy complete collection are currently somewhere in europe. Not bad for just ~45€
First up is Dubliners and I have to say Joyce is pretty good at writing about random people doing random things.

Halfway through The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss for the second time. Not sure what to read when I am finished...

Does anyone have any recommendations for books that can help me learn how to ancient military strategy?
Would Napoleon or Civil War Generals also be good to look into?

I've heard Sun Tzu's (sp?) The art of war is one of those strategy must reads
If TF2's Soldier and a co-worker of mine recommend it.......

Everyone and the people I'm up against has read the Art of War! I need something that will give me an edge over those daisies disciples of Water Mirror.

Here's what my google-fu brought up

Thread on the excellent AskHistorians subreddit about military strategy books

Edward N Luttwak, The Grand Strategy of the Byzantine Empire

And from my own memory, I suppose De Bello Gallico by Julius Caesar might be of interest. Sorry if this isn't much, I remember reading about a book that seems to be exactly what you're looking for, but I can't find it again. However you could try posting that question on r/AskHistorians, they might be able to help you there.

Thank you, Syobon! Time to study. Murhuehuehuehueh...

Mogworld.

Extremely recommend.

The final Skulduggery Pleasant book is out! Gonna read the shit out of that book... as soon as I get my hands on it.

I finished Starship Troopers during school hours. Definetly an interesting read, I recommend to it everybody in the goddamn world.

The one thing I've gotta say about it is that Heinlein's got balls. He straight up shits all over the 3 unalienable rights half-way through the book. I can say that some of the social commentary in this book I agree with (Not necessarily that, but he does make a point with that)

Went back to the Witcher books. I've already read The Last Wish which is the first novel collection, and I intended to pick up Sword of Destiny (the second collection) but then I realized I'd have to wait until the Finnish translation was available in the city library again, since the book is not available in English. So Blood of Elves, which is the first proper book in the series, is what I'm reading now. I intend to finish all the translated books in the series before February.
