    Von Neumann's War[^] by John Ringo and Travis Taylor.

    Have you read their Vorpal Blade books yet? (Into the Looking Glass, Vorpal Blade, Maxome Foe, Claws that Catch (forthcoming, formerly The Tum Tum Tree). If not they're a great read and much less depressing than VNW. Pay close attention to the marines in MF when you read it. :)

      IF it'll help kick start your motivation my favorite lines from ITLG are "One of the SEALs just gave me a gun. I think that's a bad sign, I'll have to call you back." and "The cavalry has arrived." "Our cavalry is a bunch of red necks in pickup trucks?", an event later labled by a news wienie equal parts literacy and tackyness as 'the charge of the redneck brigade'. :laugh:

        Alright dammit, now I gotta go get me a copy :). I'm getting ready to go on GOBA[^], a 400 mile weeklong bike tour. It's my idea of the perfect vacation: ride for 5-6 hours in the morning, clean up, grab a chair and a good book, and relax the afternoon away. I usually take a half dozen books with me :-D.
