Hi, I’m Ronan

A dad with dad-Vice

I have interests, questions and worries. All require rummaging online or reaching out to friends to find the solution. After 25 years of marriage, and too many bookmarked and saved sites, I’m using this space to share what I’ve discovered on my multiple mini quests to get answers to what I’ve figured out and whatever I’m currently into.

Book of the moment

I’ve got a quirky dad library. A ton of history from ancient to modern; Fantasy and Sci-fi (including comics); Historical Fiction and Military stuff in general. I’m not one for submitting book reviews on Amazon (what’s real these days) but I will share something cool I’m reading regularly here.

Currently I’m fascinated with the Merovingians, and this book, The Dark Queens by Shelley Puhak does an amazing job of recounting a significant portion of that Dynastic period. What’s fascinating is how much this story parallels George R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones. It reads more like a fantasy novel than historical fiction.
