About the author: Spent 1 year in the US Army, received an "other than
honorable" discharge. Received a BFA in creative writing and can't
string a coherent sentence together, but he was proofreading PhD theses
in elementary school!
About the writing: the book is entirely
unorganized, jumping back and forth in the timeline (and in one case,
telling two different versions of events with no explanation), and
jumping from topic to topic without a transition. He clearly does not
know how to write coherently and does not know even basic grammar. He
frequently repeats and contradicts himself.
Spoilers ahead:
This
entire "book" is wholly unbelievable. The author frequently contradicts
himself (he was telepathic from birth, he developed telepathy at age
20-21 after being abducted by aliens, he developed telepathy at age 3
after being visited by aliens, he was never abducted by aliens, and on
and on). He constantly brags about being a genius super-soldier but
never did anything in the army other than go AWOL, sell drugs, and get
an other-than-honorable discharge [he was kicked out after 1 year] and
utterly fails at demonstrating that he has any of the intelligence he
regularly claims to have. He snorted "THC" (a "white powder") and
claimed to use his "mind-control telepathy" to sell "THC" to around
15,000 soldiers on one base.
He constantly claims that a massive
amount of proof is contained within the book but never actually shows
any of that proof. Supposedly he has pictures of a nanobot that he
removed from his arm in the '70s, but does not include that picture in
the book. He does include a picture of his DD-214, showing that he did,
in fact, get kicked out of the army. That may be the only part of the
book that is true.
Read this book if you want an hour of laughter and can find it for free, but don't spend any money on it.

Yes, it's about time! Time for so much revealed in this book to come
to light. Think the majority of the population lives life not
questioning all that goes on around them. I always have. As a collective
group we always have the power to take things in a different direction.
I, myself, will have to choose to believe in a better outcome for our
world. Hope others do too.

Don't waste your money. I'm sure that this gentleman feels that he
has a good story to tell. I can only assume that at some point he will
get someone to proofread and edit the story. I would wait until a
revised version is available, one that has been edited, proofread, etc.
The current version is difficult to read because it is poorly written,
full of misspellings, grammatical errors, poor sentence structure, etc.
I'm sure the author means well and feels as though he has an important
tale to tell. The importance of the story deserves to be presented in a
cognizant manner.

Cocaine, domestic violence, using his psychic powers to hurt and kill
people ... this guy has more issues than the New Yorker. The alien
abduction part is the most believable and it's basically just a passing
reference as this guy tells his absurd story of how he screwed up in the
Army and the rest of his life. I kept waiting for him to shout "Just
kidding!" but no, he was serious about how he sabotaged and blew up his
commanding officer and thought he was getting "revenge" on the Army.
The supposed device he supposedly stole and buried is never described.
He assures us that the other guy, "Mike", totally took care of getting
the device while the author was laid up blitzed out of his mind on THC.
Part of the book seems to be the printout of a webpage, complete with
unclickable links. The entire last third of the book is word-for-word
repetition of the first part, with the middle being devoted to domestic
issues nobody wants to hear about. I sure hope this guy doesn't turn
his psychic beams on me but I'll take that chance to warn you all:
Don't waste your money on this one.

After telling this story to everyone I could tell it to for 43 years, I
finally get it Published and it gets "takendown" only a week after I
publish it thru what I called a "trusted" Publisher... as it turns out, I
wrote about the book getting "takendown" ten years before I had the
nerve to put it out there to tell the story... to save humanity from
extermination! Now that Trump is draining the swamp... it is that time
to tell the tale... that saves the human race!

The book was great. It really opened my eyes as to how we are being deceived by our government.
I look forward to his next book.
