More Praise for The Price of Liberty

I just received an advance galley from ForeWord Reviews. Reviewer Mary Popham wrote so many nice sentences that I'm not sure which one is my favorite. To give you an idea of my problem:

"Keir Graff is an accomplished writer." (I mean, really, she had me at hello.)

"His book’s foundation is strong and reliable, firmly constructed with setting and character; it prepares the reader for the swift-moving plot."

"Graff’s story reads like current political and economic news."

"The author deftly explores love triangles, father-son issues, and relationships between friends, young people and elders, bosses and employees."

"If a tale of murder and mystery, told with finely wrought characters, setting, and a delightful touch of humor, is of interest, this is the book to read."

But, as problems go, I'll take it!

Update: I was just watching this video, in which ForeWord book review editor Teresa Scollon explains her selection process—and you can see my book on her table! It appears at :49 and pops into tight focus at :54. And, by the minute mark, it's pretty much gone. (Except for a stirring reprise around the two-minute mark.) Fame is fleeting.
