An Awesome Thriller
At once frightening in its real possibilities, this multi-layered story brings terrorism to its ultimate madness. Just as corruption crumbled the great Roman Empire from within, the two 20th Century superpowers-Russia and the United States-teeter on ever rotting moral underpinnings, and in a struggle to dominate their New World spheres of influence in the 21st Century ignite radical Old World ...

One of the BEST books ever written for pregnant women!!
As both a childbirth educator and a labor doula, I find this book has great (and accurate) information, with worksheets that are perfect for discovering what you want as a pregnant woman, good research to help backup all the claims, PLUS it's written by a midwife! I could go on and on, so just put away that copy of "What to Expect When You're Expecting" and get this one instead! Inform yourself ...

work of an artist
Loved it, best book I have read in years. A friend told me about it and loaned me a copy. Whatever I say would not begin to do it justice. Buy it or if necessary borrow it but read it and enjoy. Im sure you will as I did, want it in your permanent collection. Mark is a true artist and I look forward to his next work

Great thriller
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and put it in the category of a Dick Francis (my hero author). The suspense was great; the location descriptions so good I was there with the characters; the character descriptions excellent. The whole book took me on a funny, exciting, roller coaster ride of a read. Books for me are ways out of reality - this is one of the best I've read in a long time. ...

Brilliant Coming-of-age Novel
As one raised in a Chicago neighborhood around the same time Lichterman grew up in his, I found this coming-of-age novel very reminiscent of my own childhood and adolescence. However, to enjoy this book, one needn't be from Chicago (or Peoria, for that matter), nor a child of the same era. The scenes, characters, experiences, relationships, conversations and events in this book are vividly and ...
The Hamilton Conspiracy

INSURED FOR KIDNAP, MURDER AND BANKRUPTCY
An exciting thriller with a fantastic, unpredictable storyline and rich use of vocabulary. The Hamilton Conspiracy is an excellent character-driven action thriller that follows the fortunes and mis-fortunes of a man fighting to avoid personal and financial ruin. Some great characters and good storytelling kept me reading this book well into the early hours.
Cold Logic

Metropolis Ink, 2002
Fierce!
Set in the Silicon Valley, Cold Logic offers a potent mix of suspense, technology, and erotica. But underneath all the zest and glitz, the novel covers territory similar to Coupland's Microserfs: How do you wedge a life into the hi-tech millieu? But Cold Logic is as hard-edged as Microserfs is sentimental.Highly recommended suspense.

Set in 1882, Zarathustra is a novel by Walter Stewart based on the life Friedreich Nietzsche, a philosopher who was on the brink of ultimate insight into the human spirit when he fell in love with the provocative and enthusiastic young woman Lou von Salome.

Endorsed by Archbishop Desmond Tutu
"This is one of the best such handbooks I have read. With an engaging light touch, the authors have produced a splendid straightforward guide on how to improve and enjoy sex. So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and read it; jettison your ignorance and your inhibitions, and enjoy yourselves as God intended." -- Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

Reap the Whirlwind
Douglas De Bono has written another well researched and entirely plausible international thriller populated by lifelike characters about China storing nuclear missiles in Panama, within striking distance of the U.S., leaving it up to the usual cast of characters to straighten things out. The author clearly knows his material on all matters pertaining to intelligence agencies, security services, ...

One of the best "Anne Boleyn" novels that I have ever read
Anne Boleyn appears in many novels, but most of them are pretty crude productions, rarely written with the nuance and feeling of this one. Anne, George and Thomas are complex, believable people. I would rank it next to Norah Loft's The Concubine and Margaret Campell Barnes' Brief gaudy hour,: A novel of Anne Boleyn. This is actually the story of Thomas Wyatt, Anne's cousin and admirer, ...

Soaring With Imagination
A Completely new genre of literature that does not fit a mold but creates it's own. The Author uses imagery to create a world and it's creatures uniquely his own. The characters are brightly lit and the language carries the reader along an impelling path of discovery. I can only wish for more from this Author.
