This makes the third book by Kenn Kaufman that I've read. Always very enjoyable. 🦅

The sheer magnitude of feats performed by migrating avian life on a normal basis is nothing less than amazing. And to think that it is overlooked and unnoticed by the vast majority of people is even more amazing. 📚

And this is but a tiny sliver of nature and its miracles.

Looking forward to more work from Mr. Kaufman.You cannot view this attachment.

Out of all the King work I've read thus far, I think this one is the most 'out there' novel yet, besides maybe 'The Gunslinger.'

This was the first I'd read of Peter Straub, this convergence of these two accomplished authors' minds is pretty amazing.

The first 200-300 pages were tough to wrap my mind around, however, after a break for other reading, this was excellent.

I am reading this.  It's a doomsday book about an EMP / nuke strike.    Based in Black Mountain.    A friend told me "I had to read it"

I don't do novels and can't say this one is going to change my opinion of them.

If it has a foreword by Newt, I'm probably not gonna like it.

On a side note...
Watched "It's a Disaster" yesterday. Good dark comedy about couple's interactions during a nerve gas dirty bomb attack.
Got "Dr. Strangelove" que'd up on the computer for tomorrow. One of the best movies, ever.

Finishing up reading Rick Wilson's "Running Against The Devil". Good read and battle plan. And chuckles.

I read that entire trilogy about a year or so ago. I enjoyed all three books big time.
