This is a terrific book, read 30 years after publication. Afghanistan is not mentioned, but the end of the USSR and Warsaw Pact are spelled out as they happened over 10 years later. What is predicted is a Japan China Australia economic domination. Is this about to come to pass

What did you think of it

Allan Mallison. I've not heard of him but will look into it. Thanks for the recommendation.

How are you enjoying the move overseas? I've been wanting to get out of the country for vacation for some time and am trying to decide where to go.

Always nice to find other fans of Cornwell. He is my favorite author at the moment. I'm currently finishing up the Saxon Chronicles. Still have Lords of the North and Sword Song to read. What's your favorite series by Cornwell?

And of course, you have to love Tolkien.

Yeah, I'm always glad to find other pulp-nuts like me. Have you checked out Baen's new "Spider" collections: Spider: City of Doom and Spider: Robot Titans of Gotham? Pure pulp heaven!
