i have not completed reading many books in the last few years...i spend the time on stamps..but i went to a thrift store with my wife...where else would i look ? The book section. a book looked interesting...City of Thieves about the 900 day siege of Leningrad ..or as the locals called it Piter. So for the first time in a while i quickly finished the book. I decided to google the author David Benioff...and he turns out to be the writer of Game of Thrones.

I prefer to think of George R. R. Martin as the writer of Game of Thrones, Benioff and Weiss adapted it to TV by doing the screen play.

You are right Joe, i think someone on google gave him more credit...he has a good imagination...it was a fast read.

I have now dedicated early afternoon for reading. I have read a series of books on the Marines in Vietnam (issued by Marine Corps) and available in PDF. It took getting used reading from a 10-inch tablet as I dislike reading from a standard computer screen.
