HISTORICAL ACCOUNT IN A TALE OF FICTION
“Ghost Patriot is a historical account in a tale of fiction about the War on the American West which has brought Patriots to the Frontlines in droves.
Chapter 1 opens vividly drawing us into the nightmare of a combat zone when suddenly the reader finds themself wide awake snapping back into the real world.
By the second chapter, it becomes clear who the characters are in this indictment of criminals. Ass-hats on high who would, and do prosecute truth from the mainstream media to those occupying the seats of decision in our halls of government.
This new book from Michael Stickler where the names had to be changed to protect the innocent, specifically the author., a man more than qualified in recounting this tale of American Dissonance that I've called the tale of The Tortious and the Hair or Hoof to Hide; the Truth.”
— Vincent Easley II
I COULD NOT PUT DOWN
“Ghost Patriot is a book I could not put down. Although I read a lot of books, I never read this type of story, so my expectations were low. However, right from the beginning, the story caught my attention. Every day the news is hard to believe this is happening to America. This book is so perfect for these days.
The action is realistic, and I kept wondering how it was going to end. You will care about the characters as you get to know them, so the story moves fast. You will want to give this book as a gift when you see how great the story is.”
— Dr. Lawrence E. Nelson
RIVETING, FAST-MOVING TALE
“Reading the book brought me deeper into the story about a disconnected group of people who were from different backgrounds, but all had a love for their country, friends, and family. Dreams for a better way to live.
Political conflicts brought them together in a manner that jumped up the intensity of the story.”
— Steve Buckley
A PERFECT BOOK FOR A RAINY DAY - ONE YOU WILL NOT PUT DOWN
“Ghost Patriot from start to finish is an action-packed, thought-provoking page-turner that you will not want to put down. If you are familiar with the Cliven Bundy standoff and love patriotism at its core, this is a must-read. Definitely on my holiday shopping list!”
— Michele Smith
SPELLBINDING
“This book kept me spellbound. It's an awesome read. Michael Stickler nailed the government and the corruption right on point as he writes this action-packed thriller about how at the highest levels in our country deception is everywhere and those who stand up as true patriots find themselves labeled as enemies or worse yet, terrorists. It is a must-read for anyone who loves freedom, liberty, and the civil rights our country stands for and swears to protect.”
“I urge every American to read this book it's a fictional story but it's so true to life what is going on in the world today it was one of the best books I have read in a very very long time.”
— Jerry Brewer
““Ghost Patriot” by Michael L. Stickler is a book that's perfect for people who like stories about politics and suspense. It talks about how the government can sometimes do bad things and take away people's freedoms, which is something many people worry about nowadays. The story is about four brave people and a reporter who try to make things right in a country that's falling apart. Stickler writes in a way that makes you feel like you're right there with the characters, and it's not just about action but also about how people can stay strong when things get tough.
Reading “Ghost Patriot” made me feel like my worries about today's politics were understood. I'm a believer and a conservative Republican, and I really connected with Stickler's ideas about the future and how brave Americans can save it. I can't wait for the next book to come out!
Overall, I think "Ghost Patriot" is a great book with an exciting story and a message that matters. I would recommend it to other believers, conservative Republicans, and anyone who cares about what's happening in our country. It's a book that makes you think and gives you hope that things can get better if we work together.”
