Caliban's War by James S.A. Corey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great, entertaining novel, combining sci-fi with horror (not my usual thing) in the form of an alien life form that seems to threaten humanity's very existence. If you're going to read this, start with the first book, Leviathan Wakes. This series definitely has me in its grip!

The Iceman: A Novel by P.T. Deutermann
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great page-turner of a WWII novel. Following Malachi Stormes from submarine service with the Atlantic fleet to his new command in the Pacific, we see a dedicated, smart sub captain who brings brutal efficiency to his work. This book is written with both the technical knowledge of a veteran naval officer and the writing skill of an author who creates characters we care about.

Well done, Captain Deutermann. I'm looking forward to reading your other books!
