Mission 019 ~ A Warrior and a Scholar [Dictated/Action]

[noblefive]

Can anyone recommend any books? Any genres, any time period. I've read most of the war stories and documentaries. Looking for something a bit different.

[There'll be the rustling of pages other than the journal in the background. Anyone in the library will see a 7'8" armoured giant sat at one of the tables quietly reading.]

Have you tried mysteries?

[noblefive]

Any suggestions for a beginner?

[deductiongeek]

Sherlock Holmes, of course! He's the best detective. The Sign of Four is my favorite. Agatha Christie's novels are all good too. Especially the ones about Hercule Poirot and Ms. Marple. Dorothy Sayers' books are good too, and so are Edogawa Ranpo's books and the Detective Saimonji series!

[noblefive]

[And a chuckle here.]

That's quite a list. I take it you're a fan.

[deductiongeek]

Yes! Mystery novels are my favorites.

[noblefive]

I hadn't thought of mystery novels. I'll give them a try, thanks.

[lonenoble]

Getting bored of the usual kinds of past times, Jorge?

[noblefive]

Could say that. Just thought I should expand my skillset, learn about stuff other than war.

[lonenoble]

Especially with this place. Our skillset isn't exactly needed most of the time here.

Maybe I should join you.

[noblefive]

Always room at the table, Six.

[lonenoble]

Appreciated, Jorge. On my way.

[noblefive]

Roger that. I'll make sure there's room.

[lonenoble]

[Have another Spartan joining you, Jorge.] At least the place has a good variety.

[noblefive]

The best. Not even the UNSC database has some of these volumes.

[lonenoble]

Well, the UNSC only has human records at hand.

[noblefive]

True, but there's even some human records here we don't have.

[lonenoble]

You make a good point, Jorge.

[noblefive]

It's weird how much we actually lost over the years. History's won by the victors, I guess.
