An Act of Self-Defense by Erne Lewis has received an average user rating of 5 out of 5 stars based on 91 customer reviews.

Category: Literary Fiction

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

It is ten years into the future and the nation’s government is nearing financial and moral collapse. A small group (the TLR) believes deadly force is necessary to save individual liberty from the two-party political aristocracy that divides and controls Congress. They believe dictatorial powers will soon be claimed by the federal government. They announce to the nation . . . and ours is the only form of revolution now possible. But it has this advantage. If lives must be taken, only ours or those that have stolen our lives will be required to forfeit theirs.

They give Congress three days . . . to approve their proposed Term Limits Amendment to the Constitution that prevents professional politicians from serving in Congress. Or, unless they first resign, the long term incumbents will be term-limited in the only way they leave us.

The Department of Justice targets term limits supporters and libertarians in its hunt for the terrorist group. But when the first senator is “term-limited” in spite of all that federal authorities can do to stop it, it is clear the terrorists will not be easily found. They are inside the federal law enforcement agencies that are hunting them.

In this novel, I examine the issue that Thomas Jefferson predicted we would be forced to deal with. All three branches of our federal government have ignored the Constitutions protection of the individual’s rights. They have increased their own powers far beyond the limits provided in the Constitution. But what can we do about it? If our liberties, our right to make our own choices, are diminishing with every year, how do we ever regain them? Is deadly force justified?

An Update and The Kindle Daily Deal

September 29, 2012 by Michael Gallagher Leave a Comment

Amazon appears to be having a server issue this morning, as the dozen or so books that were supposed to be released for free (according to the independent authors who let me know in advance about the deals) are having issues: first thing this morning none of them were free and, as I type up this post, about 25% of them are free now.  Let’s just say the independent authors who have emailed me this morning are a tad bit frustrated.  We have one child going one way and another going a different way today with their activities, so I will be logging in later today as time permits to see if the issue has been resolved.

The Kindle Daily Deal is a one-day only offer where a specific Kindle book for adults and one for young readers (children or young adults) has been hand-selected by the editors at Amazon and significantly discounted for today only.

At least, that’s the way it’s supposed to work but Amazon appears to be continuing the weekend tradition by offering ten highly-rated mystery and thrillers at just $1.99 today, which is 80% off of their normal $9.99 each pricing. Rather than list each of them out individually, you can check them all out if you You can check each of them out if you click here or type in http://amzn.to/kddeal into your computer’s web browser.

Today’s Kindle Teens Daily Deal is Spinning Out by David Stahler Jr., which has been discounted 86% to just $1.99 from its normal $13.00 price; this book has received an average user rating of 5 out of 5 stars based on 8 customer reviews, and here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

 

 

High school senior Frenchy is just getting by, smoking pot with his best friend Stewart and skating through life. But Stewart is up to something and he wants Frenchy to join in–by trying out for the high school musical, Man of La Mancha. A perfect plan for Stewart’s most legendary prank ever, right? Wrong. Stewart is serious, and convincing. The next thing Frenchy knows they have won the lead parts of Don Quixote and his sidekick Sancho. Stewart’s passion infuses the whole production, but his antics begin to border on obsessive, and Frenchy has to step in more and more often to reign him in. Ultimately, like Quixote, Stewart is spiralling into the beginning stages of schizophrenia. Frenchy embodies and then explodes his role as sidekick both in the play and in life as he figures out how to be a friend, a leader, and a man.

David Stahler has delicately woven a layered story about class, friendship, and the uncertainty of adulthood. With all the fun of High School Musical with a depth and grace of reality, this is a memorable coming of age novel that will resonate with a variety of readers.

Over 650 Free Fantasy Kindle Books from Amazon Kindle Store

September 28, 2012 by Michael Gallagher Leave a Comment

 

By popular request, I thought I would highlight the free Kindle book offers in another genre. The next few paragraphs will be new to folks who have just discovered or have recently joined in to reading the blog, and for others it will look familiar…be patient, Grasshopper, as the details – as well as links to the prior genre highlights – will be on your screen before you know it!

I’ve received a lot of requests to highlight more of one particular genre or another – let’s say that’s science fiction. On the other hand, as an example, I receive a lot of requests to decrease the exposure to science fiction and increase the exposure on mysteries and thrillers.

In other words, everyone has a different favorite genre – and that’s great!

In each post of the various free book offers I try to provide a variety of different genres, as I realize everyone has different tastes. While there are certain genres I love, I know there are folks out there who absolutely wouldn’t stand to read the kinds of books I enjoy; the opposite is also true, as I know there are those of you who absolutely love paranormal tales about vampires, especially id someone falls in love with a vampire – as one example – yet you would never catch me reading one of those.

For a new series of posts over the next few weeks, I’m just going to point you to the specific genre in the Amazon Kindle store where you can peruse to your heart’s content: some of the genres you may really like, and for the ones you don’t like rest assured there will always be another post down the road.

All that being said, today’s focus is the free Kindle book offerings in the Fantasy genre: as I type up this post on Thursday night for posting on Friday afternoon, there are just over 650 free books in the fantasy category. I’ve created a special link where you can check out the listings of freebies in those categories you can save to your web browser/s favorites / bookmarks as follows:

 

http://amzn.to/kindlefantasy

 

Alternatively, if you are using a Kindle Touch you can click here.

The number of books free in this (and any other) category change each hour and, just because you may click the link(s) above doesn’t mean each and every book listed will be free: if a price is showing, it may mean the price is (a) about to change to free and the Amazon server hasn’t caught up yet, (b) was free but is now back to “paid” status, or (c) any of 1,001 different reasons. The key thing to do is to carefully look at the price before you click the “buy” button on the Amazon website. I would recommend you change the sort on this page (look in the right-hand corner on the Amazon page) to sort by “Price: Low to High.”

Here are past spotlights in case you missed them:
Over 575 horror titles being free in the Amazon Kindle store (you can click here or type in http://wp.me/p2b82w-3gl into your web browser to see that post again or in case you missed it).

Over 400 science fiction titles being free in the Amazon Kindle store (you can click here or type in http://wp.me/p2b82w-3cM into your web browser to see that post again or in case you missed it).

Over 500 religion and spirituality books being free in the Amazon Kindle store (you can click here or type in http://wp.me/p2b82w-3bd into your web browser to see that post again or in case you missed it).

Over 140 cooking-related titles being free in the Amazon Kindle store (you can click here or type in http://bit.ly/TejVdT into your web browser to see that post again or in case you missed it).

Over 650 children / young adult titles being free in the Amazon Kindle store (you can click here or type in http://bit.ly/QjbjuY into your web browser to see that post again or in case you missed it).

Over 900 romance titles being free in the Amazon Kindle store (you can click here or type in http://bit.ly/UyoomJ into your web browser to see that post again or in case you missed it).

 

I hope each of you have a great weekend!

Michael

Amanda’s Eyes by Kathy DiSanto has received an average user rating of 5 out of 5 stars based on 12 customer reviews.

Category: Mystery and Thrillers

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Waking up is the pits when you come to in a hospital with a broken arm, a colorful assortment of abrasions and contusions, and a face swathed in bandages. It’s even worse if you can’t remember what hit you.

The bad and the ugly are crime reporter Amanda “A.J.” Gregson’s business. But learning she had a ringside seat for an explosion that killed two agents of the Continental Intelligence and Investigative Service (CIIS), incinerated an entire block of warehouses, and did so much damage to her eyes they had to be surgically removed? Well, that gives the darker side of life a whole new meaning.

Haunted by elusive nightmares, A.J. waits for her transplant and struggles to remember the events leading up to the fateful night of September 4, 2075. Weeks crawl by without a glimmer, before memory floods back the night before surgery, every brutal detail crystal clear.

The explosion had been the work of the Ferrymen.

“The Ferrymen. My not-so-magnificent obsession for more than a year. Only a cataclysm could have made me forget. I guess you could call them hitmen. You could also call Einstein a math whiz. Think ruthless. Think unstoppable. Think killers so proficient ‘caught the ferry’ was fast replacing ‘bought the farm’ in common usage, and you have the Ferrymen in a nutshell.”

The transplant surgery goes off without a hitch—welcome news, because A.J. is raring for a rematch with Hell’s Boatmen. But contrary to popular belief, what you see isn’t always what you get. Take her new eyes, for example. Those baby blues may look perfectly normal, but they possess a power that turns her world upside down—the power to see into the hidden dimensions of the human heart.

When the Sight unmasks the mastermind behind the Ferrymen, the unveiling is as stunning as it is unbelievable. The revelation sets her on course for a second head-collision with evil. Will she survive the final encounter?

The Kindle Daily Deal

September 28, 2012 by Michael Gallagher Leave a Comment

The Kindle Daily Deal is a one-day only offer where a specific Kindle book for adults and one for young readers (children or young adults) has been hand-selected by the editors at Amazon and significantly discounted for today only.

Today’s Kindle Daily Deal for adults is Black April: The Fall of South Vietnam, 1973-1975, a historical book by George J. Veith, and this book was $29.95 yesterday in the Amazon Kindle Store (that was not a typo) but has been discounted 90% to just $2.99 for today only. This book has received an average user rating of 5 out of 5 stars based on 15 customer reviews.

Today’s Kindle Kids Daily Deal is Silly Tilly by Eileen Spinelli and David Slonim, and this book was $9.99 yesterday in the Amazon Kindle Store but have been discounted 80% to just $1.99 for today only. This book has received an average user rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars based on 9 customer reviews.

You can check both of them out if you click here or type in http://amzn.to/kddeal into your computer’s web browser.

Here is Black April: The Fall of South Vietnam, 1973-19975 book description from the Amazon website:

 

 

The defeat of South Vietnam was arguably America’s worst foreign policy disaster of the 20th Century. Yet a complete understanding of the endgame—from the 27 January 1973 signing of the Paris Peace Accords to South Vietnam’s surrender on 30 April 1975—has eluded us.

Black April addresses that deficit. A culmination of exhaustive research in three distinct areas: primary source documents from American archives, North Vietnamese publications containing primary and secondary source material, and dozens of articles and numerous interviews with key South Vietnamese participants, this book represents one of the largest Vietnamese translation projects ever accomplished, including almost one hundred rarely or never seen before North Vietnamese unit histories, battle studies, and memoirs. Most important, to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of South Vietnam’s conquest, the leaders in Hanoi released several compendiums of formerly highly classified cables and memorandum between the Politburo and its military commanders in the south. This treasure trove of primary source materials provides the most complete insight into North Vietnamese decision-making ever complied. While South Vietnamese deliberations remain less clear, enough material exists to provide a decent overview.

Ultimately, whatever errors occurred on the American and South Vietnamese side, the simple fact remains that the country was conquered by a North Vietnamese military invasion despite written pledges by Hanoi’s leadership against such action. Hanoi’s momentous choice to destroy the Paris Peace Accords and militarily end the war sent a generation of South Vietnamese into exile, and exacerbated a societal trauma in America over our long Vietnam involvement that reverberates to this day. How that transpired deserves deeper scrutiny.

You can pick up your copy of Black April: The Fall of South Vietnam, 1973-1975 by clicking here or typing in http://amzn.to/kddeal into your computer’s web browser.

 

Here is the Silly Tilly book description from the Amazon website:

 

 

“Tilly is not an ordinary goose. She takes her baths in apple juice. She wears a pancake as a hat. She tries to ride the farmer’s cat.”
But the barnyard animals complain that she’s too silly. When she stops entertaining her friends with her antics, the farm becomes a quiet and unhappy place. David Slonim’s acrylic, pencil, and ballpoint pen illustrations add to the hilarity in this story about a one-of-a-kind silly goose.
