“[An] un-put-downable apocalyptic thriller….While many narrative elements are noteworthy—the character depth, the powerful political and social commentary, the nonstop action, the breakneck pacing—it’s the author’s meticulously described and alarmingly realistic near-future Earth that will chill readers to their core. This dystopian cautionary tale stands as Pressfield’s most ambitious work to date.”
— PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“…an absorbing take on good vs. evil, and disasters pulled from today’s headlines lend unsettling realism to the supernatural-tinged setting.”

That's what one agent told us as he refused to submit the manuscript of 36 Righteous Men.
Fortunately my original agent, Sterling Lord (who's now ninety-eight years old), took over. In three weeks he had a deal with legendary editor Star Lawrence at W.W. Norton.
Never give up!
