More About This Book

Overview

On a near-future election eve, aging senior US intelligence officer Jeremiah Jackson is worried. Marriage a shambles, numbing caseload on his desk, and country floundering amid moral crisis and terrorist warfare, it’s Jackson’s job to hold together a disintegrating twenty-first century America. But how? With his sister-in-law mesmerized by a charismatic terrorist leader and evidence mounting daily of American involvement in his plans, Jackson must also consider the goals of industrialist Jonathan Galt. Scion of Ayn Rand’s steelmaker, Galt heads a group with plans for the beautiful but doomed space station, Ad Astra. Amid the shards of his personal life, how is Jackson to keep America from raveling at the seams? Ultimately, with the world in a tail spin toward barbarism, a grand gesture of love points the way for America to rediscover a destiny in which Jackson will play a vital role.

    Destiny Restored is a Wake-Up Call

    Destiny Restored is a gripping tale about a group of Americans in the near future who do something about having their country taken from them. The novel presumes to reach wide, and it succeeds. It is action, mystery, history, social commentary, and romance rolled into one. It is hope grown from hopelessness. The astute reader quickly picks up references to Ayn Rand, Alexis de Toqueville, Cato the Elder, and others, but the truly discerning reader enjoys discovering subtler allusions to Allan Bloom and certain contemporary celebrities. Destiny Restored's timeliness is remarkable, projecting global terrorism and the worsening culture wars as the chief threats to America's survival as we know it. But the epic backdrop doesn't smother the personal interactions. It's a good read.

    Brilliant!

    This is a great novel. Very well-written, with a Tom Clancy-esque feel, it is also easy to read. Political intrique, science fiction, and action and adventure combine to make this an enagaging thriller. It is especially poignant given the events of 9/11. Highly recommended.
