Hellburner

This was a fun book. A little educational value and a lot of entertainment.

I learned that the original Hellburners were used in the late 1500s during the siege of Antwerp. Kind of like a Trojan horse, the ships were loaded with fuel, sailed through the enemy ships, and lit on fire. And who were the geniuses who thought of this? The Dutch! (Clearly this is where I get my creativity. Ha!).

For the entertainment part and how the Hellburner idea fits into saving or destroying the world, you will have to read the book. It is a great vacation book. I read it over 3-4 weeks (NOT on vacation) and it was still good.

SHINE!
