There are now just five days to release (and “Book Bomb Day”) for Founders: A Novel of the Coming Collapse. Please wait until the release date–which is also our planned Book Bomb day–to order your copy. Not only will you get yours at a better price (probably around $11), you will also help boost the book’s sales rank–hopefully into Amazon’s Top 20 titles. Thanks for your patience.
