Is up on Amazon for $1.99. I do not know for how long. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend it. Here is a link to my book discussion questions. I'm looking forward to discussing it in the Gulch.

    self publishing is the wave of the future. Most publishers aren't doing that well. They are almost all progressive. They do not want sane heroes with sound principles. My novel has broken into the Top 100 medical thrillers. I am self-published. Consider reading, "Pendulum of Justice," Hiraghm, I think you'll like it. How far along are you in "The Frankenstein Candidate?" I am really looking forward to a discussion about it on this post.

    Finished mine about 5 minutes ago. Vinay must have been channeling Allen Drury. Much of the plot line could have been drawn from his famous series. The political maturation of Olivia reads much like Ceil Jason, with a happier ending. Frank comes off like Orrin Knox, though Frank gets to keep his Kyla. An enjoyable read.

    94% is right after the election/appointments so I was annoyed with that...but the subsequent unraveling of the politicians was nice. Frank stood his ground and stirred up somethings, which is what we need, just a lot more of it.

    I'm interested that you are annoyed at the end of the book-looking forward to hearing why

    "If you don't control your politicians, they will control you." Is that a Vinay original quote? I want to use it.

    well, minnie, I have just released a techno thriller with my husband, "Pendulum of Justice." wdonway has several novels and a couple of books of poetry out, consider starting with "The Price of Hannah Blake." AJ's novel, "Shadows Live Under Seashells," overmanwarrior's novel, "Symposium of Justice" and "Tail of the Dragon."
    Check out Goodread's small government group. Lets Shrug and I are members.
    Euda has a collection of satirical poetry in the works....

    I just purchased it. Thanks for the recommend, khaling. I won't be able to get to the book for a few days since I'm proofreading two other novels (where the protagonist in one is an evil business man again... ugh!), but I'll soon read it.

    Does anyone know of a place where authors and readers who support non-leftist messages are getting together? Is there a group like that here that I've missed? If there are members on this site who write novels like these, I'd love to know who they are so I can read their work and support them as well.

    Again, thanks for the recommend, khaling. Keep them coming, please.

    Well, Eddie Roarke will be "evil" because he'll promote everything the politically correct deem evil... pollution, oil, discrimination, technology, self-reliance (from government, that is), and more.

    Well, yes. There are slow periods when you have about 5 min to do something else and you can't wander the floor looking at stuff YOU want to see.

    not protagonist -- the antagonist. sorry.

    an evil business man protagonist would be interesting...
