Well I'm on chapter 9, this is hard to put down. I get such a warm fuzzy feeling about my government makes me wish to live in a fun place like Detroit or Atlanta or Chicago s/o. At least we don't have Clinton this term, although I'll breath a little easier after Jan 20th.

I downloaded it at Amazon and finished it in about 9 hours over two evenings. EXCELLENT READ!! I could have finished it quicker if the wife hadn't been trying to talk to me. I have read and enjoyed the Going Home series several times. I think the scenario that plays out in Cry Havoc is a much more likely SHTF scenario than an EMP/CME event. But hey....what do I know about that stuff. You keep writing it and I'll keep buying it. Any timetable on a Cry Havoc 2?Semper Paratus - Always Ready!

I'm working on Avenging Home. Once I'm done, I'll see about Cry Havoc and some others that I REALLY want to read. We're in the middle of a bathroom remodel and had to postpone because we ended up re-piping our whole house! Things are crazy. I need a nap... or vacation.

And what kind of naming scheme to use? Continue the quote, and make it "Let slip the the dogs of war" works. But after that, the lines from Mark Anthony get kind of ugly and awkward.
There are other good spots of phrasing within Mark Anthony, or you can look toward "cool exclamations from Shakespeare" as a theme, and that really opens things up to some interesting phrases.quam minimum credula postero

Yell, chaos, as in - set up a ruckus and get the soldiers up, man the gates, put the archers on the walls, etc. Ever hear of a modern soldier calling for a strike "danger close" or even "bring the rain!" (Either directly or in a movie?) "Cry 'Havoc!'" was an order you'd give to someone else, and they'd call it out to the soldiers to melee, chaos, and looting, basically, bring an end. "And let slip the dogs of war!" was further referring to bringing out the soldiers. Most Englishmen of the bard's day knew it at least in passing, so it appears (with minor variations,) in several of his works.quam minimum credula postero
