svalbard vbmenu_register("postmenu_885312", true); : no one is insulted, we all like a good debate.
I tell you what, go buy or borrow from the library Wolf of the plains by Iggulden and tell me if you enjoy that...its a really good read.
also if you like scarrow have you read simons Wellington / napoleon series? its fantastic.
Also if you like a thriller, try Alex Scarrow (yes its his brother) last year he wrote A thousand suns which is really good, and tomorrow he has Last light due out...if you want details of the books let me know and i will post them
