Congrats, Dustydigger! You've done really will with all the struggles in your life! I'm happy to hear that P&M will return next year.
I've just finished Timothy Zahn's Cobra so I'm just one book away from completing the challenge. I've only read Star Wars stuff from Zahn before. Cobra turned out quite different from what I expected. It's set far into the future where Dominion of Man has spread to many planets. They're at war with an alien race. Jonny joins the army and becomes a Cobra: his bones and tendons are made almost unbreakble and he has nanocomputer put in which enhances reflexes. The Cobras are sent into occupied human plants and infilterate the locals and lead the resistance. But that's not all the book at all. We see what the Cobras do after the war and follow Jonny for decades. It's very easy to read and sucked me right in.
