It's Time to Remember the
Alamo All Over Again!
In the long war against terrorism, the US Government had taken on extraordinary powers. And now that the war was won, powerful forces in the government had no intention of relinquishing those powers. As in 1860, the country was on the verge of civil war. And as in 1860, a leader arose to save the country—but it was not the President this time. Instead, the Governor of Texas was the woman of destiny. And, though the Federal Government had more guns and troops, David was about to give Goliath a run for his money. . . .
"Probably the most realistic depiction of a second American Revolution ever written." —John Ringo

Product ReviewWell written, if slightly more heavy handed then some of his later works. The action and pacing leave some to be desired too, again, he improves substantially in his later works. With the field of philosophy almost fully corrupted by academia, actual students of the human condition tend to follow in Rand and Heilein

Product ReviewOutstanding treatise of the possible.
Timing is a bit premature, but highly plausible!
Love the writing, too!

Product ReviewWell written, and unfortunately plausible. Interesting how loudly people with a liberal political philosophy are screaming about this book. You will either love it or hate it, which is about right for a tale that makes you revisit sacred cows.

Product ReviewI want to give it more because some of the characters were very well done and I loved the battle scenes, but the authors own beliefs couldn't get out of the way of the writing. I mean, you can get a point across without being ludicrous blatant about your feelings. Too bad too, I thought it could have potential.
If you enjoy watching Hannity and want some of that mixed in your literature, this book is probably for you. If you just want to read good scifi without the politics mixed in, look elsewhere.Posted on

Product ReviewWilli was a Nazi--National Socialist. Her programs sounded left-wing but could not have existed. I had a hard time getting through the book--the author kept mixing things up.

Product Reviewthe fighting scenes were very well done, and the general writing is good, but I prefer my right-wing propaganda to be televised.

Product ReviewThis could have been a 5, the premise and military portion is wonderful. Unfortunately the herion and villian are stereotypes. The villian is a petulant lesbian who is out for power with no scruples or finnesse. The herione cries in almost every scene and is told what to do by a man because she is unable to make hard choices.
The agenda of the book could have been written by one of the screaming right-wing TV pundits who speak in thirty second sound bites and lie like a biased statistician.
If the author ever starts questionning all the propoganda and not just the left his books could be excellent. For this one it's a bit of a slog getting through the "liberals are stupid" bits to get to the good parts.Posted on
