H Beam Piper writes good stuff
Carebear, Thanks for your alaska answer on APS, I am really looking forward to going there.
H Beam Piper wrote good stuff all of his work is worth reading. If you can find any of it you should read it. There is a new series out by Eric Flint that started with 1632 that reminded me of Lord Kalvan. I liked that one after that it went downhill for me.
Jerry Pournelle has written some good stuff. I recommend any of his Falkenburg series esp Go Tell The Spartans. They are about a guerilla war/revolution in the future. I liked David Drake's The Reaches trilogy but many may not.
One book I just read was Iron Sunrise by Charlie Stross which I liked. It reminded me of the pre WW2 thrillers with agents and innocents running around through the Balkans.
