Since I'll be out of town for almost a week with limited internet access, I'm pre-writing and scheduling some posts.
Since I got an e-mail about just what books I enjoy reading, I figured I do a series of posts about what books I have on my Kindle, Kindle for PC App, Kindle for Android on my Cell Phone, and Kindle for Android on my Tablet. Yes I do have that many devices set up to read Kindle books. I like to read.
You will notice that many of them are Science Fiction/Fantasy.
I'm going to list a lot of the authors and books I read on my Kindle.
The First book I read by Mike was The Hero, written in the John Ringo Aldenata Universe.
The Hero
Then I ran across his Freehold Universe
Freehold
The Weapon
Contact With Chaos
Rogue
Better To Beg Forgiveness
Do Unto Others
When Diplomacy Fails
His new Temporal Displacement Series which is only one book right now
A Long Time Until Now
And his compiliation book
Wisdom From My Internet
He has some others, but there isn't a Kindle Version of them and I don't have them yet.
To see his full listing of books go to his Amazon.com Authors Page.
This is the first post of "What's on my Kindle". I plan on having at least one of these posts a day while I am out of town.

Brigid's Book - Saving Grace - A Story of Adoption - is now available on Kindle
And I just bought it. The deadtree version is currently sold out, but since I do 90% of my reading on my computer, phone or tablet I was just waiting for the Kindle version to come out.
You can get your own Kindle Copy at the following link: L.B. Johnson - Saving Grace - A Story of Adoption
I also bought Michael Z. Williamson's A Long Time Until Now
And since I missed Travis Taylor's next two novels in his Tau Ceti Agenda, I got those two as well, One Good Soldier and Trail of Evil.
I'm still waiting for OldNFO aka J.L. Curtis to announce the release of the next book in his Grey Man series. I was one of the Alpha readers on parts of it to catch some of the errors and I CANNOT wait until I can finish reading the rest. I keep re-reading the sections he sent me over and over plus the first two of the series to try to keep from having withdrawal symptoms.
If you don't hear from me over the weekend, I'm either at the range shooting a couple of new toys or reading.

Michael Z Williamson educates an Anti-Gunner on their Ignorance
"Dear Tweeter,
A 140 character limit makes it impossible to have an intellectual debate.
Your first question was, "Why do people keep guns in their wardrobes?" Your second was, "Why do you keep guns in your house?"
As opposed to keeping them where? I prefer to keep my property where I can control it.
I think where you're going with this is, "Why have a gun at all?"
Well, that's more metaphysical. However, as I've discussed previously, guns are the single most effective way of defending oneself. Here's one of my links, with sources:
http://www.michaelzwilliamson.com/blog/item/rape the section on the effectiveness of firearms starts about a quarter of the way down the page."
Plus he even throws in a little quiz to PROVE just how ignorant they are of Firearms.

A "Discussion" about Civil Rights
"He believes in protecting a woman's right to choose. He has called
on Congress to require waiting periods and ultrasound before
abortion..."
"He believes in protecting our First Amendment rights. He has called on Congress to regulate bloggers to prevent hate speech..."
"He believes in protecting the rights of gays. He has called on Congress to strengthen the Defense of Marriage Act..."
"He believes in protecting our right to worship freely. He has called on Congress to pass laws challenging the tax exempt status of churches who argue against science..."
~~~
You cannot "protect" a right while calling for limitations on it."

If you read anything else today
you need to read Michael Z. Williamson's post at Sacred Cow Slaughterhouse.
"I used to believe gays were entitled to relate as they wished, including marriage. What two people do together doesn't affect me unless I'm one of them.
I used to believe it was wrong to treat people differently based on their skin color. Even if a few people fit a stereotype, millions of others do not.
I used to believe there should be a strong division between church and state, that any support of a religious entity using property of the state constituted endorsement and was wrong.
I used to believe people had a right to protest, campaign, rant and create non-violent incidents to express themselves and their positions. I also believed they had a right to publish as they chose. I believed they were entitled to burn the Flag in protest, to make a statement."

Reading assignment
I often post books here which I feel have an important message. I have in the past posted a couple of these more than once. I will do so again
First click on the following links and you can download the book from the Baen Free Library
But two book in particular stand out.
The Road to Damascus by John Ringo and Linda Evans
And
Freehold by Michael Z. Williamson
Download those books, read them, check them out of your local library, go to your local book store and buy them.
Keep them in your head, try to distill the message. Then look at what is going on around you everyday in your life right now.
And ask yourself, "Are they Prophets?"
