Read my book for free, because it has Iron Man in it. Sort of.

What with the Iron Man movie coming out I thought it would be a good time to release my novel as a free pdf.  Why now?  Because Iron Man is something of a central metaphor, much as the Fantastic Four are a central metaphor in Rick Moody's The Ice Storm.  So, if you've been wanting to read my book, and the only thing stopping you was the price - go for it.

And, if you haven't been wanting to read my book - why not?  It won an honorable mention in the Writer's Digest Annual Self-Published Fiction awards.  It still has a five star average rating on Amazon.  So...it must be good.

Random side note - a friend of mine read it a few months ago and said to me, "It's a lot like Freaks and Geeks."  I'd never seen Freaks and Geeks, so I watched it, and - yeah.  A hell of a lot in common.  Geeks wanting to be burnouts.  Burnouts wanting to be geeks.  Eighties pop culture references.  So...if you liked Freaks and Geeks, you should give this a shot.  Especially now that it's free.

the movie version of Iron Man at least was practically flawless as far as super hero flicks go

That was an amazing read.
