Recent Books — Noumenon, Stephen King, Reacher, Tropic of Kansas, When Paris Went Dark
Noumenon and Noumenon Infinity by Marina Lostetter. A space exploration trip returns to Earth after centuries away and can barely relate to the evolved human culture. And so on. Fun.
The Institute by Stephen King. Very average Stephen King. So still highly entertaining but not amazing.
The Midnight Line by Lee Child. Another Jack Reacher book, a very good one, dealing with a missing veteran who may be a criminal or a hero or both.
Tropic of Kansas by Christopher Brown. A fascist nationalist leader arises in the US in the 1980s. Years later we follow along as young rebels try to undo the damage. Very entertaining.
When Paris Went Dark by Ronald Rosbottom. Paris during the WWII occupation — what happened to the city and the citizens. Some dark times.
