Hey fellow 'Warriors
....so imagine you're 32yrs old, work full time, love reading paperbacks (bought a Kindle but gave it away to my nephew, just can't read a book that's not printed on paper...call me old school or that I should get with the times but simply can't do it...I even have the Catalyst core rulebooks on PDF - bought via RPGDriveThru on sale, no piracy, rest easy - and went and got the hardbacks anyway...yeah, it's THAT bad!) and very keen to expand your knowledge of the BattleTech universe to engross yourself even deeper in the setting.
I've read a number of posts/reviews before posting this thread, but didn't quite find what I was after.
If you were in my shoes - what would you consider the top 3-5
absolutely must read fast paced seminal works a beginner can't get away with
not having read.
Please state your choices and why, next payday is Wednesday week and I've seen
www.bookdepository.com carries a wealth of BT titles.
No technical readouts, faction assessments or other literature, please...
Only proper novels
ala 40k Omnibuses, the kind that you can't put down to save yourself.
Surely over 30 years there must be an abundance of them but that very abundance is a double edged sword when you don't know where to begin!
Thanks in advance to any who'll take time to respond
Stevo
