Great awesome very good book
This is one of my favorite books. H.G. Wells is the best author. I had read his War of the Worlds and First Men in the Moon and some of his other books so I had to read it. I recommend this book for any H.G. Wells fan or just sci-fi fan.

I Sure Am Glad I Joined The Republicans!!

Very good read!
While the premise of the book my seem unbelieveable, the very fact that the 25th Amendment makes this scenario possible makes this book very chilling. I found it to be very entertaining and very hard to put down. I highly recommend it for an political junkies looking to get lost in something other than the current events in Washington!
