(First of all, thank you, Jim Robinson, for allowing the announcement of a FReeper-authored book to be posted on the site. Yet another example of Jim's support for all of our efforts to champion the cause of liberty.)
Several FReepers (who may be too modest to desire attention on this particular thread, but who are mentioned in the 'acknowledgments' section of the book) were intimately involved with Jeff in the authoring/editing process. As a result, 'Breath of Fire' represents, in part, a collaborative FReeper effort.
I can think of no better way to 'promote' this book than to recount what I wrote in the guestbook at Jeff's 'Breath of Fire' website:
I have known the author for several years, and have collaborated with him on several activist 'projects' whose purpose was to light a fire (or fan an already existing spark) within the hearts of his countrymen in an effort to reclaim our beloved republic, and restore her to her former self (the most moral/prosperous nation in the history of the world). Collaborating with Jeff on 'Breath of Fire' has been a distinct privilege. Jeff's strong and abiding faith, his dedication to his family, his knowledge of American and world history/current events, his devotion to the principles that were the force behind America's rise to greatness, his resolve to do all that is within his power to restore her to that greatness, and his intelligent and vivid depictions of entirely possible future events (should the free world neglect to be vigilant and prepared) all find their way onto the pages of this chillingly prophetic (but certainly not without optimism) book. And books two through five promise to be just as intriguing....
'Dragon's Fury -- Breath of Fire' is the first in a series of five books which, from the perspective of a knowledgable, well-informed, dedicated patriot, portray entirely possible (and very disturbing) future events. But the perspective is not without optimism. Nor is it without a belief in the spirit and resolve that has always been truly and uniquely American -- a belief that, if we are able to summon the necessary vigilance and preparedness, that spirit and resolve will see us through the crises which continue to loom just over the horizon.
When asked why he wrote the book, and why he is writing the rest of the series, Jeff responded (in part):
.... we have allowed ourselves to be weakened to the point of being vulnerable. On September 11, 2001 we were shown just how vulnerable in a very horrific way. But even that did not show us the full potential of where such vulnerabilities can lead. We must be vigilant, lest events like those described in "Breath of Fire" come about and we are taken completely advantage of in our weakness, and we lose the liberties that have been paid for in blood by those who have gone before.
The book describes international intrigue and planning at the highest levels of foreign governments. It describes disasters which befall America as extremely committed and ruthless individuals put those plans into motion, and it describes the hope that a free people can project on even the most tragic and difficult of circumstances....
Barring unforeseen difficulties, books two through five ('Trodden Under,' 'High Tide,' 'The Long March,' and 'Eagle's Talons') will be published in six-month intervals, with book two expected to be published in early spring of 2002.

I have all the material for it right on the Stand at Klamath web site.
Because I study prophetic Biblical text, I can tell you China is in for a real big surprise! God is going to destroy them along with the Russian military in the real "WWIII". We will get to see it though - on top of the Valley of Miggido - Mt. Carmel - is a TV transmitter which will be filming the whole war. America will not be involved - execpt as they may have given armament or intelligence support to Israel.
Some people may believe China has plans to take over the world; I am confident God will never allow that to happen - and I have the scriptures to back me up.
May we all be prepared to serve her now.
Wrote some of this on paper while spending late nights doing watch duty over in Klamath.
God's best to you and yours.
That event, due to my own efforts to write about it, to study it and to set up a site all about it - The Attack of America - put things on hold.
Then, I was laid off at work a few days later so it was decision time. We diecided to literally go for it and put everyhting we had into re-writing things to account for 9/11 and then to finish it and get it out.
So, here it is. Events continue to catch up with it ... but I believe it is a really good read anyway. Most of the book takes place in 2005 and 2006.
The other books in the series will span the years from 2006 through 2011 into 2012.
The events in the book take place in 2005-2006.
The rest of the series will go through 2012.
Just one scenraio (albeit a very sobering and horrific one) of where things might go from here.
Hope you get a chance to get one. If you do, I hope it's a good read for you.
... and no problem on the signing if you want. Just put it on the order when you send it in. I'll be happy to, though I don't think my sig adds much ... I believe the story is a good read however and hope you do too.
Hope you have an ipportunity to get one of these, and if you do, that you find it an enjoyable read.
Hope you get a chance to read it.
Hope we can get Klamath Basin producing the food the nation needs. To do that, they will need WATER ... LET IT FLOW IN THE SPRING!
Hope you get a chance to read it, and if you do, that you find it enjoyable and thought provoking.
If I can accomplish that for those that do read it, then I will have been successful, regardless of how many buy it.
