Now that many SurvivalBlog readers have had the chance to read my latest book “Survivors: A Novel of the Coming Collapse”, I would greatly appreciate it if you would post your reviews on the Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble web sites.

They say that Internet posts and forwarded e-mails often take on lives of their own. This certainly rang true with me this morning, when a reader forwarded me a piece that began: “Due to the large number of jobs moving from California to Texas, Texas has compiled a “Californian to Texan” translation guide…” But that was a piece that was originally written by “Dan X.” and first posted in SurvivalBlog, back in January of 2011, as “The California – Wyoming Travel Dictionary”.  The part therein about “reintroduced wolves” doesn’t make any sense for Texas, but it does for Wyoming–which is …

I just read a report and then heard it confirmed by a mutual friend that my friend Pat Jones, the proprietor of SAF Lithgow in Rathdrum, Idaho died tragically on Wednesday evening. Pat, who was born in Australia, was known as “SLR-5000” on the FALFiles. He was a well-respected gun (and gun parts) dealer and an expert on FAL rifles–both inch and metric. He will be sorely missed. My sincere condolences to his family. — Today we present another entry for Round 37 of the SurvivalBlog non-fiction writing contest. The prizes for this round include: First Prize: A.) A course …

It’s official: “Survivors” is #3 on the New York Times bestseller’s list (for fiction hardbacks.) Ditto over at Publisher’s Weekly. Thanks for making the novel such a great success. Among other things, your strong orders have driven the price down to $12.39. Many thanks! Your brief reviews of “Survivors” at the Amazon.com and the Barnes & Noble web sites would be greatly appreciated. It is notable that there have been a few reviews posted by racists that have skewed downward the book’s ratings average. For the record: I’m a Christian and an anti-racist.
