EXCITING NEWS involving Jacob, David Weber, and a NEW BOOK!

An Unproven Concept – Book Review

Baker’s Dozen – Book Review
Jacob and I went to LibertyCon in Chattanooga, TN this June! (This article is WAY LATE because life.) Anyway, LibertyCon is notable for being more reader- and author-oriented than other conventions in the area…which means that I ended up coming home with approximately 90,000 books to read and likely review. I am already exhausted just…
