Underpinning the future
If you are interested in the future (and we all should be) read this book. It is one of those books that makes you realise that everything you were ever taught at school, and a lot of what you learned after school, was pretty much a waste of time, because life is ...

Marcus Luttrell

Back Bay Books, 2008

With exceptional gratitude

Never Surrender
This was one of the best books I have ever read. Well written and informative but very definetly showing the human side, emotions and frustrations. It is a "can't put down." Theres no ego trip here, It is a very good first person history lesson with all the human ...

The Force Unleashed (Star Wars)

Sean Williams

Del Rey, 2008

great game
I liked the story a great deal. The book like the game is a bit short, I completed reading it in around three days of causal reading. It held my attention for sure. The pace of the book is very fast, I liked the fact that Williams didn't let it distort story or maybe ...

Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions

Dan Ariely

HarperCollins, 2008

Reality is absolutely relative.
At first glance, the title of Dan Ariely's book seems to be an oxymoron. (It certainly catches one's attention.) Can irrational thought and/or behavior be predicted? Perhaps if it is repetitive? (The judgment and behavior of at least some people can be repetitive and ...

Killer Secrets (Tempting SEALs)

Lora Leigh

St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2008

More SEALs! Yummy
This book was by far the hardest to read for me. The plot was intense, and it was hard to keep up with all of the characters, since there were so many. But Ian and Kira were great, and their chemistry was off the charts! Defintely a series worth reading!

I disagree with the negative reviews. This was a GREAT book!!! You could really feel the love between Rowdy and Kelly. I couldn't put the book down. I read it in just a few hours. YOU MUST read this book before Nauti Nights!! The sex scenes were very erotic. Rowdy is a ...

Wiener

Great Tool
Used this to prep for the AFAST. It was spot on in and I would recommend it to anyone who is going to take the test. However, you will also need to find another source to study for the helicopter section.
