He is often compared to John Grisham, whom many regard as the master of the legal thriller.

Says Eade of the comparisons, "Readers compare me in style to John Grisham and, although there are some similarities, because John also likes to cra

Reintroducing "The Lincoln Lawyer," courtesy of John Grisham?

Remember The Lincoln Lawyer? That legal thriller by Michael Connelly which introduced unconventional lawyer Mickey Haller? He’s back! And apparently because of John Grisham.

Grisham’s Rogue Lawyer is Sebastian Rudd, who works out of a van instead of an office, has a driver/bodyguard instead of a receptionist, an ex-wife and a kid, a problem with alcohol and with authority and the occasional brush u Read more of this blog post »

Rise Up and Salute the Sun by Suzy Kassem
“God created every man to be free. The ability to choose whether to live free or enslaved, right or wrong, happy or in fear is something called freewill. Every man was born with freewill. Some people use it, and some people use any excuse not to. Nobody can turn you into a slave unless you allow them. Nobody can make you afraid of anything, unless you allow them.
