I'd forgotten about Christopher Moore. Out there stuff, but funny as hell.

Not light reading but I highly reco the series starting with The Last Jihad by Joel Rosenberg. Similar to the Mitch Rapp series (also highly recommended). The first book came out just before 9/11 and it covers a Jihad war against western targets with recurring characters over 4 books. The plot sorta follows biblical writing and end of the world Revelations stuff. Fascinating. Hannity has had the author in many times. I may have to reread the series.

Disregard, I figured it out. I spent 10 minutes searching language settings but there is a little flag to the right of the search bar that has English or Spanish selections.

Not a book recommendation, per se, but a link to a very slick presentation about the Battle for Warsaw in 1920 and what it meant for fighting Bolshevism. Interesting bit of European history.
