I have a rule I tell every author who sends me a book to review: I only write good ones. If I don’t care for it, I’ll decline to say anything. I figure it’s not my place to crush someone else’s labor of love. So I ventured into Matthew Bracken’s latest offering, “Foreign Enemies and Traitors,” with a bit of trepidation. After all, I’d written reviews in this magazine for the two prior volumes in his trilogy, “Enemies Foreign and Domestic” (Nov. 2005) and “Domestic Enemies: The Reconquista” (Feb. 2007). I called the former “a thrilling first novel…one that engages,...

Woo Hoo! The third in the Foreign Enemies series by Matt Bracken (FReeper Travis McGee) just showed up in my mail box. I sent in a check in advance to get an autographed copy! The full title "Foreign Enemies and Traitors, The Greater Depression and Civil War 2" seems very timely!

In 1973, a Frenchman named Jean Raspail wrote a bitter and paranoid novel about the "invasion" of his native land by starving Third World refugees. The book was a racist vision of the consequences of non-white immigration, aided and abetted, in the author's view, by the weak-minded liberals who failed to resist it. For almost 35 years, The Camp of the Saints has been a Bible to the radical right. Now, courtesy of former Navy SEAL Matthew Bracken, comes the American version — a portrait of the apocalypse Bracken fears will overtake America thanks to undocumented immigration from the south....

<p>ALBANY, Ga. (AP) - In a Sept. 11 story about military retirees' reaction to new documents concerning President Bush's National Guard service, The Associated Press incorrectly identified Ahmad Majied of Albany as a former Navy SEAL. Majied assisted SEAL teams while he was in the Navy, but never was trained as a SEAL. "I should have been more specific," he said Friday.</p>

Travis McGee Says a Long Goodbye By Lawrence Henry Published 8/27/2004 My old college roomie from time to time cusses me out roundly for introducing him to the Travis McGee novels of John D. MacDonald. Like me, Mike was raised reading quality lit (he majored in classics, and teaches Greek and Latin), and we both came to popular literature -- indeed, to the very idea of reading for fun -- late in life. Like me, Mike was stunned by McGee and MacDonald -- by the sheer quality, the go-to-hell abandoned narrative mastery (MacDonald rejoiced in digression, and his readers rejoiced...

I was just invited to participate as a guest on the Ernest Hancock radio talk show on KFNX 1100 AM in Phoenix. Hancock is a libertarian talk host, his scheduled guest today had to cancel and I was invited to fill in as a last minute substitute. We'll discuss my novel "Enemies Foreign and Domestic" and other freedom-oriented topics. I'll be on the air beginning after 5PM Pacific time, 6PM Mountain time. You can listen to live streaming audio here on KFNX 1100. Then you can tell me if I sounded terrified, drunk, crazy, lucid, brilliant or whatever.

Matthew Bracken's (Freeper Travis McGee) Novel: Has just become available on Amazon! This is great news for Matt. GO MATT GO! Enemies Foreign & Domestic is as compelling a fictional novel about liberty and the 2nd amendment as you will ever read. It is packed with real life issues right off today's headlines and the political camps on both sides of the issue. It is also just a good, old-fashioned barnstorming novel that you can't put down. IMHO, in his first at bat, Matthew Bracken has hit one out of the park.
