    I recently finished "A Higher Call", which is a detailed back-story about a famous incident in WWII where a German Bf-109 escorted a badly damaged B17 back through German lines...
    “There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
    One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
    The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers

      Pratchett also has a few standalone novels, notably the classic short Strata. And then there's that last thing he did with Stephen Baxter, the awe-inspiring Long Earth series.
      Also Good Omens with Neil Gaiman. Then there is Nation, The four Johnny books and there is a series of short story collections that are being released gradually too. So many books. So much space on our bookshelves.
      A good bookshop is just a genteel Black Hole that knows how to read. - Terry Pratchett, Guards! Guards!

        I just plowed through Timothy Zahn's Quadrail series (5 books) in less than two weeks.

        There's no such thing as a stupid question... just stupid people.
