Wool... By Hugh Howey
I read a LOT.. Best read in a while... This one should absolutely be butchered by Hollywood..

The given day by Dennis lehane would be interesting

One of my favorites is apparently going to be made into a movie: Agincourt by Bernard Cornwell. To be directed by Michael Mann:

Mann also directed "Last of the Mohicans" with Daniel Day Lewis, which is a favorite movie of mine. So hopefully this will go well, though Agincourt is still considered "Under Development".

I don't understand that because each individual book is really not that long. Only 200-300 pages. I have read a couple of them over like 2 days. Unless the audio books are combining more than 1 written novel together is shouldn't be abridged. There is a new one coming out soon. (The Empty Throne I think it is called)
(Agincourt is not a part of the Saxon Tales series)

there are a few Saxon Tales in the series.
does Sharpe ring a bell? There are a few of those in full length. Is this one you speak of a stand alone book?

Sharp is Cornwell, but it is not part of the Saxon tales. Sharp's stories center on the Napoleanic wars and the Peninsula Campaign.
Sharp was made into a series starring Sean Bean. Loved Sean Bean in the role. Better than anything else he has been in. Plus I liked the other actors in their roles as well.
Some of the writing/directing could have been better.

I'm also surprised Francis Ford Coppola hasn't made a Godfather movie depicting the time between Don Coreleones life before he gave the reins to Michael.. that time be tween the time he got big till then.. It would be interesting to see what tales they could weave.

No, a couple of the Sharp books start out in India, where the British had a heavy military presence and had several conflicts with the locals. Then they shipped him first to Denmark, then to Portugal/Spain which was the main field of contention...and battle wise between the French and the British during the Napoleanic Wars. After England more or less drove the French out of Spain after several years of fighting there were some battles in the south of France....then Waterloo of course (which is in Belgium).
Macedonia was either part of Greece or the Austro-Hungarian Empire, or the Ottoman Empire. I do not believe the British and French fought in that vicinity during the Napoleanic Wars.

Here is an episode of Sharpe. A critical one as it where Sharpe saves the life of the Duke of Wellington and puts him on the path of officership.

Uh actually Gipper I was thinking of two winking lizard locations...

I just read 2001: A Space Odyssey, and it was hands down the best science fiction I've ever read. Never felt like I had to suspend my belief. I've never seen the movie, but I'm afraid it might be too dated to enjoy - then again, Kubrick's other works seem to have stood the test of time.

A Space Odyssey takes an unusual palette to sit through it.. theres very little verbal dialogue in the movie.. But it definitely makes it point. We need to be better stewards of this Planet Earth. the movie 2010 with Roy Scheider,John Lithgow and Helen Mirren was pretty good,too...
