You can read it free online at the link below, and I hope many will order a copy to support the author/artist. MAJOR CAVEAT: The 2nd page is graphically gruesome, NOT for those of tender sensibility. This novel deals with VERY MEAN Statists.
On the bright side it depicts a respectful, free society of individualists living in a minarchy and taking responsibility to keep it free. Lots of insider libertarian humor, fun characters and details.

With Scott Bieser's assist, it's a old favorite made new again.

he can't design a website to save his life. I would think he'd want to put a better face on his work than something out of Frontpage.

No, Smith is the writer; Bieser is the

Great book!

I actually read both The Probability Broach and The American Zone several years ago and it is one of my favorite books. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Read the book about 25 years

Read the book about 25 years ago. Remember it as fasinating.
