Frozenbeernuts 2,283 Posted July 31 I couldn't find the book suggestion thread. Did it get peenied? I highly recommend this book: "Transyvanian Sunrise" by Radu Cinamar, translated by Peter Moon. There are 7 books in the series. Not sure if all 7 have been translated from Romanian. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 2,283 Posted August 1 Transylvanian Sunrise dedicates a large portion of the book to the masonic control over the world and what their goals are. It's not the primary point of the book, but it's vital to show how dark the forces are on this planet. How there is a very real, and very organized effort to bring the world into a state of apathy, negativity, hopelessness etc. The English editor, Peter Moon, had done interviews on the subject. You can watch him yourself to determine his sincerity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I did start this and it’s soooo slow but I like the premise and feel of the story alot but it just can’t match the pace. And BTW our own @BunnysBastatrds should play Sully in the movie.

Yes, there’s a lot of character development and a ton of humor which is what I like and what I love about Richard Russo novels. Probably shoulda clarified NF is not quite an action/thriller type novel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I knew it was not the action thriller I am used to so it takes time but yes the characters and development is what makes it and the subtle humor as well. I’m not sure if up your alley but Carl Hiassen has some pretty crazy characters in his zany novels. Not quite as wholesome as NF. But worth the read IMO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's told as a story from the original author's point of view. Radu Cinamar. Peter does add his own context. Like his research before he was contacted by Radu's Romanian editor, and how he became involved with Romania. I had so many synchronicities while reading the first 4 books. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
