S. Townsend liked Voss Foster's review of Radioactive Communist Zombies: " This book was, for me, a pleasant surprise.

Quotes by S. Evan Townsend

“I've always believed in spreading the gospel of good books.”

“All governments, even these precious “democracies,” derive all their power by force. Do something the government doesn’t want, like, say, cross the street against the light, refuse to submit to its authority, and it won’t be long before they’ll use some form of force, usually a weapon and the threat of death or injury, to compel you to comply.”
― S. Evan Townsend, Hammer of Thor
