Alas Liberty

Customer Rating:
It is refreshing to see someone who cares about their liberty and freedom. This book is not just a good read (for i could not put it down and now it is much worse for wear) but a great inspiration and tribute to true patriotism in its greatest form. I want to thank Boston for writting something that reminds us we have a voice and that if we try we can be loud enough to cause an earthquake!

First rate gun fiction!

Customer Rating:
A solid story with excellent factoids placed through out the novel.

Anti-gunners and Euro weenies hate this book, so buy an extra one to loan for a friend to help spread the word.

This Aint no novel

Customer Rating:
This is barely a novel, propaganda lazyly disguised in a story. The story is Boring most of the time, I'm not an American and this book is for gun crazed Americans, I think I'll leave it to them

Live free or die

Customer Rating:
What a fun novel - every 2nd Amendment supporter's dream come true. I read it twice through, back to back. In two days. Ten stars for Ken Royce!

The premise of the novel is that Libertarians, especially those who recognize that freedom can only be maintained when citizens can match the force (firepower) of government, a truth first learned at Runnymede and relearned many times there after. Unfortunately, there are few Americans with the courage of their convictions, and Wyoming, where I was resident from '68 to '98, and where this novel takes place, is a tough row to hoe for most Americans, who are now soft, flabby, and totally dependent on the welfare state, government handouts, and accepting of intrusion into their personal affairs.

At times, the novel is a bit preachy. I suspect this is on purpose. The novel is laced with historical quotes (and fictional quotes) whose sole purpose is to remind the reader of where our nation once stood, where it stood in the great march of time. This would be a great "text book" novel for high schools to use in their English classes, except that I doubt many HS teachers would be able to come to terms with our nation's actual history, the philosophy which supported our nation's creation, and many of the historical practices of our country, which have died out in the past 50 years.

Some reviewers have noted that this is a blueprint for regaining our freedoms. A quick check of Free State Wyoming shows that somewhere around 1,000 Americans have decided that the goal of restoring our freedoms is worthwhile, and have moved to Wyoming (or shortly will). That's 1,000 out of 300,000,000. That figure truly mocks our National Anthem's final phrase, "Home of the free, and the land of the brave."

Read the book, make sure you call your local library and they have it on the shelf (most don't), and ask book sellers to stock it as well.

Most eye opening and a must read for all citizens (as a balance)

Customer Rating:
I wasn't sure how to pronouce the title, until most of the way through (if their was an earlier reference than page 355 then I missed it) Despite my mis-pronounciation (as I told many about the book) for most of the couple months reading, I thought it eye opening. At first it was difficult to distinquish fact (those things I checked out were factual) from the story, but I soon found it free flowing (After the first 100-150 pages and unlike this review;). This book should be a must read for all, as it helps balance all the pro-United States messages we receive through our lives. There is so much information in this book you will have to re-read to fully appreciate and understand. Ken (if I may call you), you really did do an excellent job incorporating fact and novel story along with much wisdom in quotes from those key historical figures from this country. I really did get entangled in the story and hope that (for the most part) such a place could exist for those that have a better understanding of freedom. THIS BOOK WILL TEACH YOU MUCH. You don't have to accept everything, but you will accept most (after through investigation).
