Before I begin let me just say that its very hard to review a book like this without getting into the politics of it, especially considering the subject matter. This isn't a plot one comes across everyday and it frankly requires some discussion.I read both books that are available in this series in 2 sittings, I simply couldn't put them down. I'm not usually one for thrillers but alternate (future) history always appeals to me. Being relatively politically aware led me to see the many nightmarish parallels between this story and our own current political situation. In an age where something like the NDAA, SOPA, domestic use of spy drones, Patriot Act etc, can exist it isn't a far stretch for me to see events like those depicted in the novel play out in reality.
Mr. Scott writes from a very patriotic point of view. True patriotism, not just vapid flag waving and mindlessly mumbling the Pledge of Allegiance-style patriotism but nuts and bolts constitutionalism. It's unfortunate that many these days would probably try to portray this novel as pornography for gun nuts and right-wingers and ignore the truth of it when in actuality it's nothing more than a love letter to freedom and the Constitution. And if you hate those things you're probably who Peter and the organization are standing up to :p. I'm a very socially liberal 'live and let live as long as you don't harm me' Libertarian and while I may have some very minor quibbles with one or two of the political points in here, the core message should resonate with anyone who loves this country and who sees our bought with blood freedoms disappearing on a daily basis.
The book is very well written and kudos to whomever edited it, this is one of the best edited Kindle books I've come across, not an error to be found. It's breathtakingly compelling, exciting and thought provoking. I read until my eyes were swimming in my head, I simply couldn't wait to see what happens next.
I do however have one gripe:the indecisiveness of Peter, the main character. One second he's unwilling to follow orders and ready to drop a dime on the entire organization, the next he's eagerly tossing grenades like a pitcher in a little league game. I'm hoping to see a little more commitment and certainty from Peter (either way) in the next book. I understand some soul searching but at a certain point its like 'dude, you're firing machine guns at government helicopters. I think you're basically okay with whats going on'. Its not annoying but I did shake my head a time or two. However that doesn't stop me from eagerly awaiting book 3 of the series.
If you like thrillers, lots of action, 2nd American Revolution scenarios, or are just concerned about the direction this country is going in, definitely check this series out.

Patriots and Tyrants Jefferson Road Book 2 edition by Michael J Scott Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I came across this series while doing a general search and have already read all 4 published. Can't wait until next one is available. Also recommended to my sister. Well written and so applicable to the times we are in.
I absolutely love this series so far. Not only is the story line plausible (especially with our current events and public violence) but it is well thought out. The character development is nicely done, and I find myself anxious for what may happen to the main players next. I can feel their thoughts, and for some of them, their inner turmoil. I stumbled on this series randomly, but count me as a fan. Great up and coming author. On a side note, I think it's truly important that you read these books in order to truly understand the plot, but more importantly to understand how the characters grow. I can't say much else without spoiling the story, so happy reading and I can't wait for the next one!
Both Jefferson's Road novels are enjoyable, engaging the reader to keep going, with an urgency to find out what's going to happen next. Although the story takes place in contemporary times, along the way the reader comes upon fundamental beliefs expressed by our Founding Fathers as they established our democracy, even clarifications on sayings that have been attributed to the wrong person over the past 200 years. So while enjoying a fast paced 'what's next' story, the reader is exposed to an easy-to-read sophisticated lesson in the foundation of our United States of America. Enjoyable novels that teach history without letting the lesson get in the way of the story. I hope there are more to come.
There's not much to add to the other reviews, especially as I don't want to give away the story. I know a lot of people hate Christian fiction, but I expect that a Christ-follower, as Michael Scott professes to be, would bring in some miracles along the way. Our Constitutional Republic could not have been established without divine intervention and its restoration will require the same-in the book and in reality. This book can be horrifying. I couldn't keep reading, yet I had to know what happened! I've bought book #3, The Tree Of Liberty, for a visit home which will involve air travel (yuck) and I can hardly wait to be stuck in Charlotte so I can read this book! A very gifted writer, with a very important message. By the way, if there were a rating scale for sexual perversion, violence and blasphemy, I would rate this book 0/5/1. (Where 0 is less and 10 is more.)
