Book Bloggin' 7th May 2013

Finished: Anarchy in the Ashes by William W Johnstone

The third book in the series sees Ben & his Rebels beating down on the IPF - a russian outfit who are determined to create a new master race vis a vi Hitler. Only in America. Cue lots of righteous indignation & the Rebels are once again victorious (to a point). Ben is now being worshipped some kind of God and it's all getting a little out there. Mutants are out there and breeding with all manner of animal & human alike to create some very stinky huge freaks. It's about this stage that I started having doubts about this series. I did read a couple more in the series before giving up completely. I'm not sure that I will get much further this time around. The vast amount of repetition from previous books starts to do my head in as does all the seemingly endless enemies for the Rebels. Not to mention the supernatural stuff thrown into the mix. Having read the blurbs for the whole series it just seems that the story goes around in circles - russian nazis to religious nuts to african wannabe warlords to the night people to punks/outlaws back to nazi wannabes to well you get the idea.

Started: Krov: Men of War by John Schettler

This book has a tantlising start that gives you further insight into the Kirov saga. Loving it already!!
