I’m grateful for some recent reviews from a number of great readers:
“It’s a provocative, densely plotted action tale even if it’s not for the squeamish. A consistently thrilling opening installment.” Kirkus Reviews
“Bishop’s War had us breathlessly grasping pages as they seemed to almost vanish at lightning speed.” Top Shelf Magazine
“Since the far too early demise of my favorite author, Vince Flynn, I have waited, and longed, for someone who could write realistic, action-oriented novels, with compelling characters…. I truly believe my now second-favorite author, Vince Flynn, would love the world of John Bishop, and would tip his hat to Rafael for his splendid storytelling, and varied and deep personalities.” Tim Clemente.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement!
Thanks to Yakov and David Ben Efraim of Bookwormex for giving Bishop’s War a great review! Here’s an excerpt:
Bishop’s War by Rafael Amadeus Hines is about as good of a debut as the author could have hoped for, bringing to life a thrilling action story with an ever-increasing rhythm, piloted by John Bishop whom I hope will become a mainstay character. If you enjoy action books with multiple plotlines, terrorists, corrupt government officials, Afghan warlords, and a bit of the mafia, then I highly recommend you give this book a try.
I just had a wonderful discussion with Cynthia Hamilton at Goodreads. Check out the full transcript here.
I had a great conversation with C. G. Cooper on his podcast about writing and Bishop’s War. Check it out on his site here, on iTunes, YouTube, or Google Play.
