The Slave Factory

[Julian]

We're here to discuss The Slave Factory, the short book of literary historical fiction about an often overlooked aspect of the slave trade: the factories that acted as middlemen between the slaving ships and those who captured the natives.

The book's on Kindle for 99 cents. Here's its publisher's page.

This is a story with mature themes, and we all need to discuss them maturely and respectfully.

WARNING: This discussion WILL INVOLVE SPOILERS. If you haven't read the book, please be aware that major plot developments will inevitably be discussed here. Thank you for understanding.

A book and a short by me will be free this weekend (24-25 March) on Kindle.

The book is Watching People Burn, on Kindle at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006...

It's a historical screenplay about the true story of the worst school massacre in U.S. history. No, not Columbine -- it happened in rural Michigan in 1927.

The short is The Slave Factory, on Kindle at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006...? ie=UTF8&tag=comicbooks0d-20&link_code=as3&camp=211189&creative=373489&creativeASIN=B006T5C0O4

It's a story about aspects of the Atlantic slave trade that are rarely talked about.
