Insurance-Greed-31Despite the World Health Organization predicting a 70% increase in cancer cases worldwide over the next 20 years, there remains no cure or vaccine. One man from North Carolina, disgusted by the lack of progress and with his own father dying from pancreatic cancer, angrily embarks upon a personal crusade to find a cure before it’s too late. In the face of personal tragedy, he defies the odds and stumbles upon a cure that could change the course of history, only to find the real battle has just begun.

“If you stumbled upon a cure for cancer,
would you throw it away?”

 

LogoA Questionable Cure is a newly released fact-based fiction novel about a man who finds a cure for cancer – and then throws it away. It’s disturbing and funny, informative and entertaining, heartbreaking, surprising, and sobering. In his debut novel, Roger Gerald Scott calls into question much of what many of us might like to believe about the people we are and the society we live in.

“Shines a light into true facts about cancer, research, the medical profession, and the pharmaceutical industry, which is funding research for its cure – but also profiting from its existence.”

A Questionable Cure  was released worldwide on March 11th

Available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle

Read what British journalist Aysha Mendes said about this novel: CLICK HERE

“…refreshingly original, written with authenticity, and with bewildering revelations around every bend. Not to mention the impressive handling of American terminology and detail from Scott, who is a Brit living in Norway.”

Author Andrew Harkless in the news today because March 10, 2015 marks the date his novel U Got to Have U Some Fun is fully published in eBook, paperback, and hardcover versions. This literary novel is a must read for anyone that enjoys John Irving, Herman Wouk, and/or Winston Groom. Andrew writes Everyman novels, much like The World According to Garp and Forrest Gump.

What’s an Everyman novel? The definition of Everyman is “an ordinary or typical human being: it is Everyman’s dream car.” It originated in the early 20th century as the name of the principal character in a 15th century morality play.

Whether you are one of the 20 million people who cruise each year or someone who rarely even takes a vacation, this vivid work of fiction feels like the real thing. And, I happen to know there are some interesting facts in there about what it’s like to work on a cruise ship and some things that go on behind the scenes would shock the average passenger. After all, the author did research this book by working on a cruise ship for some time before he began writing.

About U Got to Have U Some Fun  by Andrew Harkless

 

John Smith, a recently divorced man and as average as his name implies, arrives home from his job at a rubber band factory to find a ticket for a cruise ship vacation in his mailbox. He assumes the ticket is from his son because Carson made him promise to break free of his boring life and, for once, travel and have some fun and the note included simply said, “It’s Time.” John is puzzled because his beloved, only child was killed six months ago while serving in the Army in Afghanistan. In order to fulfill the promise John made to Carson and though filled with anxiety about leaving his routines and comfort zone, he goes on the cruise.

During seven days of various Caribbean destinations and sea days, John meets a diverse blend of passengers and crew who influence his life in monumental ways. Each new day brings new experiences, new pleasures, a new piece of information about the source of the ticket, and a new challenge to overcome.

As John begins to emerge from his shell—less and less average, more and more adventurous, and destined for a new and richer life—the question still looms: Who bought John’s ticket?

Ordinary and typical John Smith’s life-changing vacation where the average baggage is anything but, challenges you to take stock of your own life. U Got to Have U Some Fun will have you crying, laughing, crying while laughing, angry, rooting, and ultimately saying yes to one question: Would I do anything for my children, even change?

Probably. If you are reading this, you may belong in a support group for reading addicts…or at least a book club. Same thing, right? Seriously, though, a quick update to share a couple things happening at the end of February before it’s too late for you to add to that huge library of books you have:

Author Jeffrey Poston has an action thriller series and a historical western series and is giving one of each away for free and discounting the rest to 99c for 2/27 and 2/28 in honor of Black History Month 2015. (CLICK image to find them on Amazon)

You have to check out the “making of” posts he published on his blog this week, too. His characters are a cross between Clint Eastwood, Wesley Snipes, and Samuel L Jackson, I think. The westerns show what frontier life for African-American people was like and about the Buffalo Soldiers, which was very interesting. American Terrorist was a thrilling read and, from his own experience, shows us what it would be like to be tangle with law enforcement when you’ve done nothing wrong. Now, I don’t usually read either of these genres, but I was so glad I did because I really enjoyed them–all 6 of them!
