A couple of months ago, an author contacted me and sent me an advanced copy of his book: The Shell Game

It's a fictional story about "the next 9/11" (a nuke) and incorporates LOTS of 9/11 truth info. I mostly read non-fiction, but I read this book and it's actually damn good. Steve Alten is actually a pretty successful author with several other books. He's been on the Today show, etc.

So, Shell Game debuted on the New York Times Bestsellers list at #31. Now it's at #33. Today I received an email from the author (part of which is posted below). If any one can spare a little extra cash, wants to read some really good fiction and help THE 9/11 Truth author get lots of media exposure, please consider buying this book.




To the 9/11 Truth Movement



A VITAL PLEA from Steve Alten, author of The SHELL GAME



I know you are probably getting tired/annoyed at hearing from me -- my humble apologies. But something is happening in DC that EVERYONE must be aware of, because it will affect all of us:

A few days ago, Michael Chertoff, head of Homeland Security, essentially told reporters that he fears the next 9/11, which could be a suitcase nuke. Yesterday, in threatening to veto a waterboarding ban, Bush said, and I quote, "terrorists are planning new attacks on our country... that will make Sept. 11 pale by comparison."

If this plot isn't straight out of The SHELL GAME then you haven't read the book. Now add this little tidbit: Executive Order 12919 (pushed through by the Bushies) would place the United States under total Martial Law and Military Dictatorship in the event of another attack. This Executive Order allows the President to declare a National Emergency at any time, and freeze everything...including a national election. Congress is powerless to prevent such an Executive Dictatorship, as long as the President advises Congress in a timely matter.

I realize all of you have very important 9/11 projects you are working on, books and rallies, etc, but if we learned anything from 9/11 then maybe it is time to focus on the next false flag operation. By doing so, we might actually be able to reach the mass media AND bring attention to the lies behind the last event. See, the media want TODAYS NEWS, not YESTERDAYS. And this is today's news that ties back to 9/11/01.

I can help you gain mainstream attention in a big way...but I need your support.

Guys, in the last 11 years I have published eight books, hit every best seller list, optioned a book as a movie (twice), sold two scripts, and have two more books set for publication in 2009. To be honest, I knew little about the 9/11 Truth Movement until sometime around October/November when The SHELL GAME went to print. I quickly realized that this loosely-connected group of people, often vilified by the media, were in fact ordinary citizens doing extraordinary things. They were the Davids facing off against the Goliaths. THEY were America?s true Patriots.

And suddenly The SHELL GAME took on a new meaning for me. Because I knew it could break through a barrier that has held your movement back. Because the book is a wolf in sheep?s clothing. I also knew from insider sources that the fiction could become true.

Bush's statement scares the shit out of me.

In publishing, success is measured by the N.Y. Times best seller's list. Hit the top 15 and your book receives special buy-ins, special placement on shelves...special media attention. It's like launching a rocket...spots 1-15 push you into orbit. The list is the masses. It?s their shopping list. It gets published in EVERY TOP 100 newspaper every week!

Last week, because of the 9/11 movement and my fan base, The SHELL GAME hit # 31 on the N.Y. Times list. This week we hit #33. It feels like the air is slowly hissing out of the balloon. DON'T LET IT!

Back when I was earning my doctorate degree at Temple University, I remember a framed saying on the wall of my advisor?s office. I must have read it a thousand times. It said, ?On the Plains of Hesitation bleach the bones of countless thousands who?upon reaching the dawn of victory chose to rest ?and there resting were slaughtered.?

Please do not rest. There is a huge opportunity coming as early as March 1st.

To use an analogy, the TRUTH behind 9/11 is being dammed up by the powers that be. George W. Bush Dam. Your efforts to date have been heroic and incredible, but you only caused surface cracks in the dam, nothing deep enough to reach the water on the other side and crack open the floodgates. You want to know how to crack open a dam? You keep hitting it and hitting it and hitting it as you certainly have ben doing...but The SHELL GAME is a sledgehammer.

I?ve been on TODAY show and was interviewed by Matt Lauer. I?ve been on Kathleen Crier. In fact, I?ve been on over 70 morning shows and 300 radio shows, major newspapers and magazines. Get me to spot 10-15 and I will give that dam a body blow it never felt before.

On March 1st, I begin the first of a four week book tour, this one in the DC/Virginia corridor. March 14-15 I am in West FL. March 18-23 in Philly and NYC. March 31 ? April 7 Chicago and the Midwest. April 21 ? 30 in California and Oregon. Each day I will have 2-3 local radio shows, a morning TV news show, and a signing at night. Many of these venues are booked at the last moment...based on (you guessed it ) that darn NY Times list.

Essentially we have 2 weeks to boost this rocket into orbit in order to secure BIG venues like THE DAILY SHOW, ANDERSON COOPER, and DAVE LETTERMAN. It's a small window, but the difference between # 33 and # 15 is about 12,000 sales in a week.
