I wrote a long review, but didn't post it. Didn't see the reason, in the end. There are already 100s of reviews up for Survivors on Amazon. Rawles is not much of a writer, but he is one heck of a promoter, I'll give him that. He has companies supply him with free prizes, which he gives out as rewards in his ongoing survival essay contests. So both the content of his website and his prizes are all given to him. Sweet. But a genius for blog promotion does not a novelist make.

Well, we liked “Patriots” and also your trilogy. “Survivor’s” and “Castigo Cay” are sitting on the living room table. The fiancee’ says “Surviors” was sub par and he liked “Castigo Cay”. I’ve been too busy with our own real life escapades which I’m planning my own book for to get to them. I’ll hold back judgement for later. Rawles makes his own unique contribution and he has his own agenda. In my old industry we used to say you can’t have too many friends or too few enemies. Not a bad philosphy IMHO.
