Books Need Help

[TheNobleEU]

I recently finished _Sharpe's Rifles: Richard Sharpe and the French Invasion of Galicia, January 1809_ (Napoleonic War historical fiction) by Bernard Cornwell.

And I almost never read fiction.

This is the first historical fiction I've come across and liked -- I was turned onto it by the historical series of the same name (runs on the History Channel, is out on VHS/DVD).

It took me two night sessions to finish it, and from what I hear the series only gets better. (I've been learning to use the library lately instead of buying everything in sight, so it has me wandering into areas I normally don't venture into).

Light reading, but page-turning and fun (the sort of thing I practice speed reading on) -- and its all based on a framework of actual historical events.

Gets my vote where fiction's concerned!

Cheers,
