The Greater Good
Infinite crises are going to waste! Greedy businessmen are making profits! Insensitive hatemongers are trying to make it against the law to be an illegal alien! People are harboring intolerant thoughts, while others are abusing freedom of speech to broadcast incorrect opinions!
The world has never known such need for a new narrative to neuter the nefarious network of neanderthal neo-fascists knocking at the noble ramparts of progress.
In a nutshell, the world needs a national agency of superheroes who know that now and then it's necessary to negate a few nugatory individual rights for the sake of the greater good.

About the author
Henry Brown
15 books31 followersI prefer a big ol' greasy hamburger to a caviar dish, and my taste in books growing up was very similar. I read tons of non-fiction (mostly history), and fiction in most genres. I didn't read most of the classics and am still fairly lacking in that regard.
BTW, Goodreads is NOT idiot-proof. I'm still trying to figure it all out.
Anyhoo, so far everything I've published is adventure of one flavor or another.

Satire-tastic fun! The Greater Good is a quick, easy read. It's basically the story of an elite team of Progressive government superheroes who travel the country in their sleek, high-tech jet, arresting evil capitalists and haters, freeing the oppressed, and righting wrongs in general. The pages are packed with witty, pointed mockery of today's Progressives that actually made me laugh out loud. Spot-on and silly at the same time, The Greater Good is written in a heroic, propagandist tone to match the artwork on the cover.
If you're like me, nothing is funnier than someone poking a stick in the eye of the people currently in power, who take themselves sooooo seriously that they can't see how ridiculous they are. But Henry Brown can! And happily, he can write about it, too.

Dreadful.
It’s not funny. The satire is ham fisted. The story naff. A complete waste of my time.
At least it was a short read.

Hysterically funny political satire! If you think you may harbor some liberal tendencies you must read this book. It will be like looking into a fun-house mirror. If you happen to recognize yourself, please seek psychological help immediately.
