A pretty good read. I have to admit it wasn't as much of a thriller as I expected. I wasn't exactly on the edge of my seat as I had anticipated. However, the research behind the book was amazing. I am so impressed with all the work that went into writing the book (whether the work ALL was done by Beck or not, he was involved). I loved the many references to the founding fathers, and the quotes that were used, and how Beck wove them into the storyline. I love the concept of the Overton Window and that the book itself (as stated in the afterword) is an Overton Window. And although the story is a little farfetched, it did make me think about my role as a citizen of the United States and where we are headed and what I want to do about where we are headed. I also liked that it was not party politics as usual. No one party is to blame and no one party is completely innocent.
Thank you, Rachel! You write great reviews. --The Fiction Fairy
