      Reading CLOUDS OF WAR, the 2nd of Brooks Kubik's old-school weightlifter novels. ME. "You're improving as a writer" BK. "Thanks!" ME. "Book one's pure infodump, but this is a fun opening with your hero attempting an elusive PR -- what's next?" BK. *smiles, grasps infodump lever*

      Book 2 so far: 1) old-school weightlifter routines 2) old-school weightlifters breathlessly recounting the latest feats of other old-school weightlifters to their friends who are ALSO old-school weightlifters 3) old-school weightlifters saving people with Heroic Feats of Strength

      My favorite ridiculous part of Book 2 so far is when two of the weightlifter heroes save a boy from a terrible car wreck and immediately give the crowd of onlookers a sales pitch for the equipment sold by the York Barbell Company

      another interesting and also ridiculous thing about Brooks Kubik's CLOUDS OF WAR is that the front matter includes raves for the first book by serious lifters obsessed with old-school lifting ...this is what gun nut books are like for people who aren't gun nuts, isn't it

      so I finished Brooks Kubik's second York Barbell Team Adventures novel, CLOUDS OF WAR, but I realized I never got around to updating you guys on what exactly Brooks Kubik is up to with this series and oh boy

      BROOKS KUBIK. "Can I pitch you my novel series" PUBLISHER. "Sure, you have one minute" BK. "Remember Herman Wouk's WINDS OF WAR and WAR AND REMEMBRANCE? Like that. But *better.*" PUBLISHER, curious. "Better? Better how?" BK, leaning forward intently. "They are all weightlifters"

      yes if you have ever thought, "the problem with this epic story of war and romance is that *there are just not enough weightlifters in it,*" Brooks Kubik's LEGACY OF IRON series IS FOR YOU

      imagine GONE WITH THE WIND's Margaret Mitchell was OBSESSED with like steeplechasing and there were endless infodump chapters about Rhett Butler practicing riding & saddles & boots & guys talking about races BROOKS KUBIK. "That's what I'm going for" ME. "No, look, see--"

      I mean, can you imagine a serious writer, one with a compelling literary plot about men, and their motivations, and obsessions, just going on and on pointlessly about the minutia of the mechanical tasks his characters are performi--pic.twitter.com/XFMcIltQXS
