When Richard Rumelt's Good Strategy/Bad Strategy was published in 2011, it immediately struck a chord, calling out as bad strategy the mish-mash of pop culture, motivational slogans and business buzz speak so often and misleadingly masquerading as the real thing.
Since then, his original and pragmatic ideas have won fans around the world and continue to help readers to recognise and avoid the elements of bad strategy and adopt good, action-oriented strategies that honestly acknowledge the challenges being faced and offer straightforward approaches to overcoming them. Strategy should not be equated with ambition, leadership, vision or planning; rather, it is…

I loved that this woman planned out her life so well. I am a planner, and I feel admiration for how dedicated she was to her own plan.

I read the entire Sun Eater series this year, and I loved it. This is epic space opera in every sense of the word.
The main character tells the story of his life as an old man. He tells you upfront that he committed a horrible atrocity and that he is despised throughout the universe. Most people think he is a monster; some think he is a hero.
The series slowly walks you through his life and what led him to this terrible event.The series is philosophical at times about morality and the decisions we make. I loved that perspective and enjoyed the slower, more introspective pacing between the action.
The world is vast, and I enjoyed getting lost within it. I read for character development, and this book doesn't disappoint. I was nervous to finish the last book and be forced to say goodbye to the cast.

It was not his war.
On the wrong planet, at the right time, for the best reasons, Hadrian Marlowe started down a path that could only end in fire. The galaxy remembers him as a hero: the man who burned every last alien Cielcin from the sky. They remember him as a monster: the devil who destroyed a sun, casually annihilating four billion human lives--even the…
