Taking a break

I’ve reached the end of The Wine-Dark Sea and I’m going to take a break to read some other stuff before finishing off this round of re-reading. According to some posters in the Gunroom the quality falls off a bit near the end of the series, which is to be expected, really. Still, there are a lot of good scenes to look forward to.

Right now I’m reading a bio of Charles De Gaulle, in Swedish.
