Pournelle is Baaaaaack!

OMG! OMG!

After thirty(30) thirty(!) years it's finally here!

Nut graph, as the J-school losers say, aliens kidnap CIA mercs and dump them on a medieval planet. The result is fun high-adventure.

Jerry Pournelle died a few years ago, we talked about him here. Do click over and read the Steve Sailer link.

We read him and his partner Larry Niven in high school and college. Lets just say he had a big influence on us. The Janisaries series was among the first real books we ever read. Now we're going to have to dig them out of the basement and re-read them. It's been a long time.
