Great two player adaptation
My wife and I like this game for its smaller table footprint, speedy turn play and the play time is not extensive. This game is about creating your own ancient civilization. There are multiple paths to victory, and it is important that you think out your goal based on the cards laid before you and observing what your opponent is doing. You can achieve victory through military might, having a strong economy to get lots of money, or just building the best buildings and getting your wonders made.

To be honest this is not my type of book of read, it was purchased for my husband to take on a flight but he forgot it so I picked it up and started to read it and have not put it down. You may know him from the TV programme SAS Who Dares Wins. This is not the typical autobiography that you read, yes it does give some of his history in the military but it is more about the inner turmoil that they are go through in the way of demons, attitude and how to deal with things. Recommended to everyone

I didn't know much about this film before I saw it but heard critics and fans a like giving great reviews about it. A father and former part of the military police goes in search of his son who has gone AWOL after returning home from Iraq.
This is a great film, with a very good cast giving great performances especially Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron. It touches on quite a few political views about the army and war in Iraq and the effects it can have. A truly moving film based on true events.

This was such a great novel. I am truly devastated that this is the last novel in the series. The characters in these novels are inspiring and devastatingly lovable.
Cindy Gerard truly makes you feel emotions for each of her characters. Last Man Standing was yet another amazing novel that made me laugh, cry, and want to throw the book at points.
I do wish that more of the BOI's were in this novel but I felt like it wrapped up very nicely. Now I have to find another series that will fulfill my want for attractive Military men. Hmph!

Short Read
Captain Nike Alexander is in Afghanistan for one reason only - to use her pilot skills. She doesn’t have time for men, especially military men. Playing hard to get with Captain Gavin Jackson comes as naturally to Nike as flying one of her Apaches. But Gavin’s sexy-as-sin smile is making it harder and harder to say no. Nicely written short read, touches on the hardships of war and the tolls that this has on all involved. It would have been nice to tie up some of the unfinished parts touched upon throughout the book. The characters were very likeable!

Nice Quick Reacher Fix
Another Reacher short audio for me narrated by Kerry Shale and with a run-time of around 1hr 15 mins it was an enjoyable quick fix.
Set back in 1989 while Reacher is still in the military it’s a fairly standard investigation set-up following the murder of young lieutenant colonel.
It’s what you expect from Reacher with his no-nonsense style and observing nature all in the form of a quick hit. I enjoyed this short more than the previous Reacher shorts I’ve come across; it kept things simple and to the point.
