"The Fifth Risk" by Michael Lewis

Oath of Office

Tom Clancy butt he's dead so Marc Cameron.

This is about the spy games going on around the world as The United States prepares to nuke Iran. The beginning was boilerplate spy stuff: putting cell phones in minifridges, sex and torture. Then Cameron does a nice job developing characters... Of course there are loose nukes. This is a good summertime read. Last one I read was ops center. The books read like a cross between R. Ludlum and Mitchner.

In the end it's a book.

Edit: It does have maps when you need them and helicopters.

I miss the real Tom Clancy books but I do have a bunch of Tom Clancy books written by Mark Greaney and also a few Net Force and Power Play books too.

I want to reread some of the old Robert Ludlum spy books. I started reading those in high school. They helped me to evade the teachers at Concord High.
Seriously, they are great reads and not as long as Clancy nor as dark. Like many other books the movies make the books look bad.
Bourne picked up where 007 left off. But with cooler women.


This whole 5th Power thing seems a little Warlocky on it's face. The phrase seems to come up a lot these days.

Don't have time right now for reading books. I am currently working on getting my garden in shape or skiing as much as possible.

Mere Christinanty. C.S. Lewis was a genius.

[tyrolean_skier]

I'm almost done reading this one. A page turner for sure.

Finished “Lake of the Ozarks” by Bill Geist a few days ago. Now reading “The Underground Railroad”, a novel by Colson Whitehead.

Switch to the dictionary. All the other books are in it.

2nd time you have used this "joke" in the past 5 months.

Time for both some new material and a check with your doc for early onset of Alzheimer's.

Love these books. He has written many and a few have become movies, such as Raise the Titanic (Written before Ballard found her in two pieces) and Sahara with Matthew McConaughey and Penelope Cruz.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. That's all I could find in my house that I haven't read.

Damn Twain uses the "n word" a lot. I'm waiting for his home in CT to be razed.

Just finished “The Last Trial” by Scott Turow. Really good, and timely in terms of drug development, the FDA, etc.
