I finished reading Blood of the Reich last weekend and loved it. I couldn’t put the book down..my family had to eat sandwiches all weekend. They survived and now my son is reading Invitation to Valhalla and is hooked. Thanks so much!

I have read Invitation to Valhalla and I didn’t want to put the book down. I told several people about it and they read it also. I look forward to your new book and wish you great success with it also.

Great book with compelling characters, interesting setup, and unique settings. Very well researched and moves along very quickly. Couldn’t wait to get to the next chapter and was unhappy when it was over. Includes insightful look at the internal politics in the Nazi high command, fascinating account of the training program for German spies, and a thoroughly entertaining and suspenseful trip through the United States Mid-West in wartime.

My two favorite books of 2009 were The DaVinci Code and Invitation to Valhalla. Mike, you’re a genius to bring together such extensive research into a wonderfully interesting and exciting book. I’ve read it several times and I’ve told all my friends. I want everyone to read and appreciate this book and its story as much as I have.

I can’t wait for the new book. I loved Vahalla so much I’ve read it three times. I spent almost 4 years on an LST during Viet Nam and never knew the history. Thanks so much, Mike for Valhalla and I’m sure I’ll love Blood of the Reich. I’m proud to call you my friend.

I remember my Dad telling me stories about the Klan and how it was even active in nearby Poseyville. My Grandfather owned the local store and knew many of the Klan members by the shoes he had sold to them!!

I have read the book twice and have used it in teaching WWII to 6th graders at my daughters school. just donated a copy to the school as many kids wanted to borrow my book. my daughter is also a fan. This summer when we visited my Mom (Cookie’s sister Katie) we went to the old neighborhood and saw how close all of this happened! My Mom was just a few blocks away! As a teaching tool is was great to show how even back then our country was being infilterated. Can’t wait for the second book! Many new fans are being developed in Columbus GA.

I just finished the book and found it fascinating since I am from Indiana. Thank you for bringing this part of our history to light. My wife is originally from the Evansville area and we now have many more sights to go visit when we head down there. In fact, her Grandmother, Katie Hirsch, grew up just a few blocks from the cafe where Erika stayed and her Great Aunt is the photographer of the pictures posted here (Cookie Barrow). Thanks again for the great read.
