Favorite Books

Wull, my own, of course. But wot happen was this - was demobbing from military service in Italy - what most folks (including base commander) thought was a multi-year vacation in Alpine ski resort. 

So with nothing to do & no one to do it with, I got books from local library, wot were awful - Snopes Trilogy by Billy Faulkner - wot sucks shit, big time. So...had no recourse but to start writing my own books.

Mine was a sci-fi thriller metaphor: young officer meets enchanting young green-skinned girl on far away planet (was largely autobiographical). And as the planet is being warred upon by evil Earth military, the officer manages to expose this to world-wide TV media who (unfortunately) are in cahoots with military-industrial complex (basically a true story). 

But young green girl say "not to worry." As she... (debutante-like) "becoming" or (Heideggrer-like) "physis" ...real powerful priestess of her tribe (real perty too) she'll soon be able to place her thoughts into the minds of all 'em half-wit earthlings. Unfortunately, that part's fiction, or not.  Anyway, was a nice idea. And subsequent books were actually published and not bad 'tall, in my opinion.
