Which Book to Choose?

I asked yesterday for readers of the blog to buy one of my books. Right now there's two. Killer of Killers, my debut novel, and number one favorite. Then there's The Vase, which is still one heck of a great book. The original concept of images recorded in a vase is a premise I don't think has ever been portrayed in a book, TV show, or movie. I think my book, The Vase, is the only story ever to contain a premise like that.

Yeah, it's a great premise, but without the great story, it wouldn't be a great book. It has great characters, a great sub plot, a great main plot, and a great climax. And it has a great resolution. It's just a great book. I'm very aware that having Israelis and Palestinians as the main characters is also a very unique thing to do in a story.

You see, the main character, Muhsin Muhabi and his son, Naji, are Palestinians. And Professor Weiss, Captain Mathias, and Mary Levin are Israelis. They are all main characters. Then you have the Americans, Harvey Holmes, Melvyn Bloomberg, and Lady Lamont who are also instrumental in the story. They may even be regarded as being part of the comedic sub plot. But this story is not a comedy. It has suspense, drama, tragedy, and several scenes of violence.

The only thing The Vase doesn't have is sex. There is some inferred sex, but it is not portrayed. That's why I say that even though it's a story written for adults, minors can read it. They may not understand half of what's going on, but not because of sex.

No, for that you'll have to read Killer of Killers. (And the upcoming sequel, Killer Eyes.) But with titles like that, you'd think there was killing. Um.... there is. A lot of killing and a lot of violence. I don't go over the top, though. It's not like the show Spartacus that was on STARZ recently. That was over-the-top violence. Or a Quentin Tarrantino movie.

But Killer of Killers, and Killer eyes, nonetheless, have violence. And it's because of the nature of the story. If you like exciting stories, read Killer of Killers and The Vase. And the soon to be released Killer Eyes. I can say without a doubt that they're all great stories, and they all have excitement. And much, much more. What are you waiting for? Buy them today!
