More About This Book

Overview

Kids can be cruel- these boys wrote the book.

The early 1980s were a peaceful time in rural America. The conflict in Vietnam may have ended, but for many children of US veterans, future wars against the enemies of freedom seemed all but certain.

A few kids vowed to prepare themselves.

Boys of The Great BB Gun War is a gritty account of how three clever and seemingly innocent boys gathered an army of young followers to hone their skills for military combat. Together they will explore the limits of human cruelty and acquire the weapons to turn their small farming town into a war zone.

Brad is a brilliant tactician, cunning and calculating- He will stop at nothing to get power over others and keep it.

Joel is a student of warfare, Nazi loyalist and expert in brutality. He has a knack for inflicting pain and torment on his friends- His enemies find no reprieve.

The third boy is charming and good-natured and is the tie that binds them. Marcus Adario has unique abilities and a closely guarded secret- He has lived before and something other than his scattered memories has followed him here to this lifetime. Marcus learns that unseen angelic beings with questionable intentions are guiding his fate and that he is no stranger to bloodshed.

When a practice battle against a group of rival kids goes too far, some adult relatives come looking for payback and realize the boys of “Freedom's Faction” have armed themselves with more than just BB guns. The FF must now fight a war on two fronts, as another group is also searching for the boys to recover a stockpile of stolen weapons- The US Army.

In the end, only divine intervention can save them.

    You Won't Be Disappointed

    An intriguing story of a boy named Marcus, whose time on Earth is overseen by the Watchers. Marcus is an interesting character that has unique abilities because of his ties with the Watchers. These abilities, however, do not overshadow his ability to be a boy and blend in as any other. Most memorable in this story is the friendship between Marcus, Brad and Joel. Despite their cruel and devious antics toward each, their bond is unwavering and appears to transcend time. Though I didn’t want to connect with this group of boys because of their disturbing behavior toward others, it was in those rare moments of genuine emotion between them that I couldn’t help but feel connected. A well written story and must read! You won’t be disappointed.

    Highly Recommended - Great Read

    I don't usually read fantasy type fiction but was intrigued by the plot. Turns out most of the book takes place in the early 80's and follows the boys as they train and create a small army. The boys are insane, cruel beyond words and the boy with the powers does some bad things, but with good intentions. It was a fun story and easy to read and I will read the sequel books as I am interested to find out what the future holds. Check it out.
