Patriot Smith:The Book

[Ronald Dukarski]

Just finished the book, it took two settings, but I had to sleep... This was a good book, Dale. Main stream fiction agrees with you. I hope it gets exposure. I'm going to try to get it out as best I can... but limited resourses, you know. You now have two open ended main stream books you can expound on. Don't forget about "Greasepaint". Not to say any of the others are sub-standard. Just that these two are as good as any I've read on the top ten, at least lately. Good work and good luck. And thanks,I needed that

P.S. I'll be putting up my review as soon as I can compose one befitting this excellent book..

I honestly enjoy writing wacky, out there sci-fi and fantasy pieces...

Even if I think that I tend to do a better job with mainstream fiction for some reason. The trick, and there is one, since life is full of them, is simply that when I want to make a real point, it has to be done correctly.

The tales that need to be told most don't always work if they're too fantastical.

Thanks by the way. I really appreciate the feedback.

Dale, I echo what Ron said. I read Patriot Smith on the plane the day it came out. I planned to sleep but Sebastien just sucked me right into this world. Please continue this series. It has a ton of potential and should net you new readers. Also, might consider dropping it into Dystopian or Post-Apoc category, as I know fans I those genres are voracious readers, and the subject matter certainly applies. I enjoyed this book so much I even recommended it to some of my coworkers, and that never happens. This required me to crawl out of my shell and interact with people in person-ugh, I hate that.

Good idea. I switched the categories. Dystopian and Political. Instead of general and literary...

That does sound like a better fit. Lets see if it helps? (It won't harm anything, that's for certain!)

I’m REALLY ready for book 2 in this series. Seems kind of appropriate for the times, and because it was so interesting and entertaining!

[PS Power]

I've put it off, because it ended on a virus being released... I could do it anyway, however... Is that a thing people don't mind reading about right now?

[Hondamax]

I don't think people would be put off by a virus story, particularly as you'd already initiated that subject before all this really got started. I too would be ready for a Patriot Smith 2 book ...

[Gary F. York]

I too have long awaited the next Patriot Smith book. Yet I would advise you to hold off on it (or eliminate the virus plot if that can be done easily.) Best not portray yourself as one amongst the many who will jump on the virus plot bandwagon. I'd suggest you delay at least a year or two until the wave of 'me too'ers' has diminished.

That can't be sensibly eliminated from that story-line.
