Renee says this about my novel David Gideon:
A progression and education in politics up to the presidency. When you know nothing about politics and you get involved because of something that stirs you up, it can teach you all the things you didn't know were important. While I don't really care about politics this book certainly opens the eyes to what it takes to become a leader. Nice flow and eye opening.
What I like the most about these kind words are that she apparently either doesn't care much about politics in general or David's politics in particular yet likes the story. Too often we don't care for a certain point of view, and that causes us to think the writing in front of us is bad. Yet that's not necessarily true. We can disagree with a base philosophy yet still acknowledge (and even enjoy) reading a book or an author which present themselves well. For example, for me, I simply cannot agree with the philosophy behind the science fiction writer Robert Heinlein as presented in his books. But the guy could write engaging stories which hold a reader's interest.
Hopefully, as Renee intimates, David Gideon fits that bill. Click the link and find out for yourself. Comments are always welcome!
