In 1793 France was facing foreign invasion along its borders and a fierce political war was raging in Paris when a large-scale revolt, centered on the western Department of the Vendée, suddenly erupted, almost bringing the new-born French Republic to its knees.The immediate trigger for this Great War of the Vendée, barely known outside of France, was the attempted imposition of conscription but the region seethed at the erosion of its traditional values and way of life. The persecution of the Catholic Church and killing of the king symbolized to the Vendéens how dangerous the new Republic had become; in a matter of weeks tens of thousands had flocked to fight for the ‘Catholic and Royal’ cause.This is the story of the new Republic’s ferocious military campaigns against the armies of the Vendée, which fiercely defied them between March and December 1793, tying down hundreds of thousands of troops desperately needed on the frontiers. Napoleon later called it ‘The War of Giants’ and it directly led to the implementation of some of the Republic’s most extreme laws. Views: 584

Review
"This book grabs you immediately and doesn't let you go." -Alan Kunkel
From the Author
This one was a long time in the coming. Initially written as a short story, and subsequently expanded into a single, one hundred chapter novel, Fall of the Coward was eventually shoved into a drawer and left for dead. After spending a few more years writing three consecutive novels, all of which currently reside in drawers of their own, I decided to pull out Fall of the Coward. After dusting off the word file, I proceeded to perform an autopsy upon the meandering one hundred chapter behemoth that was Fall of the Coward. After creating a new outline, throwing out half of the original novel, and dialing in on the heart of the story, the Fall of the Coward transitioned from a single over-bloated novel, into five streamlined parts of a single epic tale. And thus, the first installment to the Fall of the Coward, The Hand That Takes, was born. The Hand That Takes is the story of a young man transitioning into adulthood, and the difficulties that come with finding his place in the world. Inspired by the works of Quinten Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, George R.R. Martin, and Steven Erikson, The Hand That Takes is a truly unique property. While the novel deals with serious topics such as addiction and moral relativity, it is full of my own blend of magic, mystery, and humor. This is my debut novel and I could not be more proud to present it to the world. Views: 584
