I am going to have some money this month, are there any new or old books I should be considering buying?
I like scifi, military fiction and conservative books. It can even be historical fiction.

Anthem by Ayn Rand is really good. It is my favorite book written by her, but the copyright on that one expired so you can find it online for free. Ghost by John Ringo. Good military fiction book and slams historical revisionism. The author is very conservative as well. Ice Station by Matthew Reilly. Another good military fiction book with a bit of techno thriller thrown in. The sequel Area 7 was good too but was more of the same, just in an Area 51 like facility. The third book Scarecrow was the best, though that brought the story arc to an end. Anything by Robert Ludlum (My favorite books by him are the first three Covert One novels). He was to espionage fiction what Robert A Heinlein was to science fiction. Treason and Guilty by Ann Coulter, the conservative goddess herself. She slams leftists and leftism with her usual fieriness and witty humor. Footfall by Larry Niven. If you can slog through the one hundred or so pages between the discovery of the alien ship and the actual invasion (I can understand the need to depict the preparation and the geopolitical side effects of an alien ship arrival, but I prefer stories more fast paced) you will find a very good book.
