The following books are recommended by 3rd Brigade OIC. All are genre and fiction – but most still apply to leadership and military concepts. They will be organized by topics I feel the books best address.
Leadership:
All of the Honor Harrington Series, by David Weber.
The Way of Kings – Brandon Sanderson
Dealing with unintended consequences:
Speaker for the Dead – Orson Scott Card (Book in the series of Ender’s Game)
Adaptability and Strategy:
Destroyermen series – Taylor Anderson
General philosophy:
Chapterhouse (final book in the Dune series written by Frank Herbert)
Being overly stubborn when you have a good crew to rely on:
The Longmire series by Craig Johnson
