A couple of years ago I heard part of an interview with James Mattis after he had left his position as Sec of Defense. Mattis, a retired Marine, mentioned the "Marine Comandant's Reading List." It can be found with a Google search and I have read a number of books from the list since. All were good reads.

Any of the Bill O'Reilly "Killing" series. I think there are about 10 now. The latest is Killing the Mob.
I've read Killing Jesus and Killing Lincoln. Great reads.

O’Reilly’s Killing Crazy Horse I enjoyed. All of James Alexander Thom is great. The Frontiersmen , That Dark and Bloody River, and A Sorrow in Our Heart about Tecumseh by Alan Eckert is very good. Stephen Ambrose’s Undaunted Courage about the Lewis and Clark expedition is great. Ted Franklin Belue’s The Hunters of Kentucky is very good. A lesser known author, David Nevin wrote I think five books before he died and they are very good reads.

Just finished my yearly reading of Lord of the Rings. Need to check to see if Timothy Zahn has a new Thrawn book out

If not, I'll probably go to Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton

I spend a lot of time driving and YouTube has a lot of audiobooks you can listen to...

Unintended Consequences by John Ross (out of print and expensive to get, but free PDF downloads are available)

The Gulag Archipelago by Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein (the movie doesn't even come close to the moral of the book)

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress also by Heinlein

I'll try to think of some more.

For some great light-hearted reading, you must read some Patrick F. McManus. Here are but a few of his books.

"The Night the Bear ate Goombaw"
"They Shoot Canoes Don't They?"
"A Fine and Pleasant Misery"
"The Grasshopper Trap"
"Real Ponies Don't Go Oink"

Yes, both excellent. I do believe Demonic is ACs best book though.
