Jihad Joe: a novel

 The most difficult thing to do in the world, is to write a novel. It is also the easiest thing to do, because you cannot not write it--you are forced by your own nature to write. That`s also the way it is with blogging, but blogging is easier in a way, and harder in another. Easier in the sense that I can shoot from the hip, like I`m doing right now, but harder because you need to be prolific and interesting.


I've just completed my second novel, Jihad Joe, which is now out in e-format and hopefully will be available in a few days on Kindle, Kobo, Nook, Cranny (made that one up), Soni Smartphone (I believe it`s called), and a bunch of other e-reader devices, as well as your own PC, (which is available right now).  In fact, I believe that before too long, there will be fewer paper books and the market will be dominated by electronic media.  Just as long as the media doesn`t remain dominated by left wing troglodytes like you find on MSNBC.


Briefly, the novel is about a guy named Zed Nill, (musta been drinking when I came up with that name), who works for The Free World Press, an honest paper that prints the truth. Zed finds himself in the middle of a terrorist attack and is taken prisoner and secreted to a safe house in upstate New York. He is guarded by Yusuf, an Indian Muslim who is new to jihad, and it becomes Yusuf`s job to kill Zed if the President of the United States refuses to release three Gitmo prisoners by the next day.  Protocol dictates that the government does not negotiate with terrorists, so Zed is to lose his head the next day.  Yusuf is alone in guarding him, and Zed must convince him that Islam is not the religion Yusuf believes it is, and that his life should be spared. Can Zed convince Yusuf, a man who has been taught since childhood that Islam is the only true religion, that he was duped?  And if he can convince him, can he get away before the two other terrorists return to finish the job?  

The clock is ticking.


Jihad Joe  is entertaining as well as informative about the "religion of peace."  If you know nothing about Islam, it will open your eyes and give you powerful insights. 

If you know about Islam and jihad, I believe you will learn things that you might not have known about the doctrine and what the civilized world is facing today.  For the Amazon version click here
