"The definitive biography of an industrial genius, philanthropist, and enigma. At the meeting in May of this year, Munger also mentioned the Mellon Brothers as people to study."

Interesting, although I still felt that Margaret herself was something of an enigma, this was a good insight into the politics of the time and what a pivotal part she played in Europe, possibly impacting down to the present day!

Great film with an amazing performance from Benedict Cumberbatch as he and a team try to crack the Enigma code. A very interesting film that will draw you in and have you hooked.

Witty Dialogue
Strong support cast
It is intriguing to see how the authorities would use the information they have once the Enigma has been cracked, in this classic ‘race against time’ tale.

The cast was great with the likes of Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley and Mark Strong amongst other great actors!

The setting of this book being in Scotland drew me in right away. Not only did Magill do a fabulous job with the scenery but she seemed to capture the soul of the Scottish people. The relationship between the characters of Bryce and Reggie is something of an enigma that will keep you guessing until the end. The relationship that develops between Bryce and Fiona ages just like a fine scotch. This book was truely a pleasure to read.

"There are a lot of people right now who are toying with the idea of mystery — Lady Gaga, for example — but M.I.A. is an actual enigma. She's self-aware and toys with the notion of "Who am I?" She's actually singing about something meaningful, but she's putting it in the context of dance and rap. It's like looking at a bunch of bicycle reflectors; you're just not sure what's actually going on. But that's good."

The second book in 'The Lost Fleet: Beyond the Frontier' spin-off from 'The Lost Fleet' series, with most of the same characters (so, in a way, the 7th book in the series).

Whereas the previous book primarily concerned the outbound portion of their mission (to investigate the extent of enigma - aliens discovered in the 'original' series - space), in this the fleet starts its journey home with the novel picking up almost directly from the end of that previous story.

They also don't (yet) make it all the way home - have to leave room for the next entry in the series, after all!
