This is a fast-paced and thought-provoking novel. Once started, I could not put it down! I am eagerly anticipating Mr. MacKinnon's next book.
A Great Book!!

One of the best books I have read in a long time! It puts in novel form what will soon happen in the USA unless there is a massive reversal of course.
A book for real Americans

To "Americans" who have sold out to political correctness, this book will be offensive. Followers of Gavin Newsome will not like it nor will the professors at UC Berkeley. For the rest of us who have had the audacity to serve and defend this Republic from enemies foreign and domestic, this book strikes a resonance which is almost a call to arms. As unbelieveable as it may seem, there are still those of us who would still shoulder arms to defend our country from those who seek to destroy it, both foreign and domestic. Is life so dear, or peace so sweet to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Pretty radical stuff, huh?
It could never happen. . . Right ?

For those addicted to the Washington based politico thriller, this is the real deal. A fast read with plenty of inside baseball, that reveals what could happen if a few folks followed their most sacred political beliefs, a little further down the line. Still, I don't think that's why the book had a two page spread in Roll Call. Somehow after the read is over, there are lingering thoughts in your mind, pulling the book's scenarios into the realm of the possible. You try to shake them off . Then you hear Gov. Schwarzenegger say that California has "the technological force of a nation-state". Someone else says Germany can fit into Montana and France into Texas. And over there at the nuclear poker table, all those people are trying for a seat. But, it could never happen. . . Right ?
Great read!

This book is a great page-turner. I couldn't stop reading it. It's set in the near future and presents an incumbent conservative US President with a tremendous moral dilemma--how to prevent an elite group wanting secession from killing millions of US citizens. It's actually pretty scary stuff. Strong, life-like liberal characters make the plot all the more real. I would compare the 'top' Democrat in the book with Barak Obama or even Hillary. He's someone who has strong convictions and stands up for what he believes in... in an eloquent and inspiring manner. Also, if you've ever visited DC you'll have a better appreciation for the book. You get an insiders view of DC: everything from the Secret Service to the people inside the Pentagon, the White House staff to the Hotel Washington dinner conversations. The short chapters and detail-oriented narration make the story even more fast-paced and believable. Overall it's a fascinating read, for anyone who has anything to say about the current state of the Union.
