Ok ... I'm signed up, and I've listened. Now the problem starts. I want the book, we're heading out for a short recharge next week, I need a good book to read while relaxing, and your not drawing till the 21st ... You've got my address ... how 'bout just slipping one in the mail this morning ;) Oh ... you can just leave my name in for the next book!
-
;D
-
Well .......make sure your other half is prepared to talk to the wall.. eat with a person who only has the top of his head showing...and in general.. fall asleep with the bedside light on with a person who has the Night Of Thunder book in his face 24-7.
sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... I can't complain much.. I am going to start it tonight, so he will get the same treatment. ;)
He said the book is way past awesome.

And this would be different than any other day in her life how ... ;D

Btw...
Read Paul Erhardt blog post today about his Stephen Hunter addiction:
http://www.downrange.tv/blog/?p=1028
-
I'm a new addict, and after reading three I would never I would not start attending any twelve step program that could harm the joy!
-
I wasn't even going to enter the drawing but if his books are THAT good... I'm in.
-
I heard about him from MB's podcast and the 47th Samurai, but I did not pick it up. Then I watched "Shooter" and said I need to read this guy. I picked up three books, having faith, and I'm hooked.
-
I just started reading Black Light, after all this talk of Stephen Hunter I just had to pick it up when I was in Goodwill. Great place to shop if you want to try out new authors without paying $8 a book.
-

They ARE that good, Just wish I could find "Hot Springs" . I saw "Shooter" and liked the twist at the end, then I saw Mr. Hunter on NRA News and decided I should keep him in mind next time I was at the library. The Swagger series are REAL good ;D
-
Since I have my face buried in the Thunder book.. I surprised Marshal and bought him 2 more of Stephans books.
He is a happy happy camper.. LOL
-
I have just finished reading my 3rd book of Stephen Hunter. Man I LOVE these books.! They are the best. This guy writes in a way you find yourself right there.. breathing hard.. not moving.. feeling your finger gently and quietly squeezing the trigger.. and for the last 2 weeks. I have been in sniper mode. 8)
I even dream about sniper situations .. with me being in there someplace.. sometimes they have all kinds of other stupid things going on.. but it is a dream.. and it always makes sense ::) That's why they call them dreams.. ;D
I have read.. Point of Impact ( which is NOTHING like the "Shooter" movie.. Book is way better)
Night of Thunder and Black Light.
I just got home the other day from Wichita.. and bought 6 more. I am starting Dirty White Boys tonight..
These are great books.. but don't expect them to do too much for a marriage..
No talking.. No sex.. No nothing.. I do my work.. cook supper and eat with my nose in the book. ;D ;D
But I get by with it....cause Marshal has his in one too. :)
( I lied about the sex part) ;)
-
I too, really enjoy Mr. Hunter's books. I have: Point of Impact (which has been read at least 3 times), Time To Hunt, Blacklight, and The Master Sniper. I need to get to the bookstore and pick up some others, now that I think about it.
-
for all you techies you can get quite a few Stephan Hunter books on iTunes. I have 6 on my iPod now. So far I have listened to Hot Springs and Pale Horse Coming. Next in order of release is Dirty White Boys.

I didn't get a book, but I've got an invoice signed by M'ette in red ink ;D
I'd head to ebay with it, but I'm not sure what it's worth while she's still breathin'.
-
Nuts! :'( Now I have to go to the bookstore and buy a copy. :o

Three words, INTER LIBRARY LOAN ;D

Just finished Dirty White Boys.............
It was different than the ones with Bob the Nailer in them.
I didn't like it as well as the others I've read.
It was still really good, just different.
I'm getting ready to start Time To Hunt...
Will let you know..
M58...Nothing I have..red ink or red lipsticked is worth anything on E-bay.. breathing or not breathing..
( sorry to disappoint you.. ) ;D ;D
-
Well there goes my last chance at saving retirement plans :'(
-
"Time to hunt" is good, check out "Hot Springs" as well, "The Spanish Gambit" stunk, "Master Sniper was lame but it introduced one of the characters in "Havana". Have you read "Black Light"yet ?
-
Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait and win the AR.
IIWFBLIHNAA (If It Wasn't For Bad Luck I'd Have None AT All!!!!!!!)
Richard
-
Yeah.. have read Black Light.. it was great.
I have bought but haven't read yet.. Hot Springs, Master Sniper, The Second Saladin
-
I thought Master Sniper was good, just didn't like how it seemed to drag out in some areas. I need to get back into some good books, I have been so busy lately, I haven't had time to go pick some up. Time to hunt is very good IMO, I enjoyed it very much.

;D It limped along, I finished it which is more than I can say about "Spanish Gambit".
M'ette tell how "Second Saladin" is.
-
You know? I'll just start the Second Saladin instead of the other one on this run... and then you will know if it is any good. ;)
-
You are a dear.
-
She sure is. I don't know who else would do that.
-
It's my pleasure and not a problem...

Even the books that are so -so ..are still good.
This one looks like it is going to be a doosey....
