Crossing the Rubicon. This book is as old as the Roman Republic and as new as tomorrow's Science Fiction. It's set in about a decade or two from now, in a genuinely plausible world where major corporations can unite to wield as much power as a nation-state. Nature abhors a vacuum, it is said, and the author in this book explores what happens when countries become weak and indecisive. It starts slowly, but by the middle it's hard to put down. If you enjoy modern action/military books, or enjoy finding historic themes in current day situations, you are likely to enjoy this one. It is told from the position of a soldier caught up in this world, living life for his brother soldiers, but inexorably more and more faced with the effect their acts are having on the international community, and to what extent he and they bear a moral burden for the consequences of those actions. Recommended.

Good Book. It was a great read, breezed through it in a few days. The only problem I had is that at times he seemed to be advertising for products like Red Bull or Rolling Rock.

Taking on the future. Because of historical fiction, Pressfield became one of my favorite authors. I was not sure at first how that would translate into a future setting. I should not have worried. The story is excellent on it's own, but then it weaves in echoes of empires past and lessons not thoroughly learned. This was a one night read for me because I could not put it down. Written in first person, Pressfield has a way of making you the unknown watcher in the room without going overboard. If you like his past works, I highly recommend this one and I wait impatiently for the next.
