Better yet, send Travis a check.
I read it this weekend, and I could not put it down.
From the politics of the Government Service, to the empire-building antics of GS-ladder-climbers, Travis manages to capture the real-world consequences of government of, by, and for the government. He lucidly illustrates, in his novel, what happens when the people accept willingly what the government tells them.
And, tellingly, he demonstrates what might happen, when they don't.
"Enemies, Foreign and Domestic" is an instructional work - for those of you paying attention, it is a clear indication of things you need to do now, to be prepared for the morrow.
Buried within the book are also an accurate description of life in "wonderland" (Washington, DC), and a hint of the world that coexists in and around the government utopia - a dark world of alternative lines, run by everyday guys, completely under the radar of the Government.
When these worlds clash, the pucker factor goes up, considerably.
[note to fellow freepers - if you are busy pissing each other off on a drug-war-thread, and have not read this book, you deserve what you get.]
