    Hello Mike, I read Amazon has you as a member “with” Jerry Jenkins “Underground Zealot” series on their shelf, so I’d like to recommend another Christian Thriller, "The Diaries of Pontius Pilate.” It draws upon the author’s military background and has great reviews. “Diaries” is not a vanity or self-pub book, but is published by Trestle Press, a small independent press outside of Philadelphia that gave a Christian novel a chance. Full disclosure - I wrote it and hope you’ll give it a chance.

    Best wishes, Joe Lewis www.josephmaxlewis.com

    Hey Mike! Happy new year to you as well. I am in the midst of some really good thrillers by Michael Connelly you should check your local library for this guy's books.

    Hi Mike ~ I read your review of Red, White & Liberal, and I'm so glad there are people like you who are willing (and brave enough) to go that extra step to find out what the other side is like. It's too bad we live in such a difficult time of social division. Yours is a great example of open-mindedness, and when you find out it's not you, you know yourself much better than you did.

    And five stars for Uncle Ted...I like! Need to locate a copy...

    Hey, Mike! I read your review on Mad. I totally agree with you! I loved it when I was a kid, but we don't live in that world anymore, sad to say.

    Well I have to read it for English but it is so much better then reading Heart of Darkness so it is all good.

    Me too but sometimes I regret my generosity. Just finished a book you might like called Wolf Pass, by Steve Thayer. Will try to write a small review in a moment.

    Mike! Long time no hear! I actually have both books but will probably only read one-I am trying to try a bunch of new (to me) authors this month. I can only report mixed success.

    "Huckleberry Finn" -- yeah, that makes my skin crawl. I SO dislike ugly words, too.

    Comics are great! Check out my newest edition "Boys of Steel'; a great 'origin' tale of Superman's creators!

    Thanks. If nothing else you should recognize the setting. You may like the diversity in the characters as well.

    Oh thanks, Mike. I enjoy checking out your shelf as well - always very interesting. Lately I've been having fun trying to remember books I've read many years ago and, as you might have noticed, I've been adding my reference type books from work.
