Well, I haven't read this book yet, but it has been getting plenty of MSM buzz, including from the New York Times.
But I'm confused. Didn't Ayn Rand first make this an issue, oh, around 1943, in The Fountainhead?
And isn't she still being denounced and mocked for it, to this very day?
Why is it that a truth isn't a truth unless it's "discovered" and propagated by a gang of Establishment academics?

A personal message from Vince Flynn
I just received by email a copy of this personal message from bestselling thriller author Vince Flynn. It speaks for itself.
I had the honor of interviewing Vince a few years ago (and I’ll be re-posting that interview on my “Vigilante Author” blog soon). In addition to being a great writer, he is one of the most personable and principled men I know.
I know all of you will wish this wonderful man a full and speedy recovery as he continues his gallant battle with cancer.

Just a reminder:
Anyone looking for posts about fiction, self-publishing, and my own novel HUNTER: A Thriller, should visit my separate blog, "The Vigilante Author." My latest two posts there (late Sept./early Oct.) contain my extensive list of "The Best Thriller Writers -- Ever."
