My Delightful Reading List...

Hello again!

Below I have listed some of the books that I have used for my prep work for the game. There are some very interesting books listed below so I thought I might share some of them with you and give you some idea of how much I like to do prep work.

Since I am a rotten low down, cheeky bastard I am even going to post a link to an Amazon Wish List at the bottom for some other books I would love to have ;)
