I just read Against All Enemies, ask me anything!
And yes, it's an excellent book. Exciting at the beginning, informative throughout, and scary in his prediction of what will happen if we "stay the course".

5. Yes - Brock was on WNYC last week
(though it might have been a national NPR thing, I think it was specifically WNYC) and gave a thirty minute or so interview. Great stories he had.

Blinded By the Right was very elightening!

7. Thanks!
I used to be a film critic for a school paper. Maybe I should get back to submitting critiques for publishing. Glad you liked it and that we both think this book is fantastic!
