Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Death’s Bright Day by David Drake



Ever since I read the adventures of Horatio Hornblower I’ve loved books that exalt the attributes of courage and loyalty going both directions from leaders to followers and back.   Drake does this so well in his Daniel Leary series.  

Daniel and Hogg, his trusty, crusty pseudo-father/bodyguard are involved in a civil war in a sector that is in a “neutral” zone.  Adele Mundy and Tovera, the orphaned Lady, and her sociopathic sidekick/protector are, of course, part of the story.

As the norm in these stories, Daniel does a MacGyver maneuver combined with a strong dose of David Copperfield and saves the day.  In the interim, the everso proper Lady and her protector escalate the body count with a sorrowful soul on Mundy’s part and supreme indifference by Tovera.

I love these books.
