PRAISE for CSZ and Gene:

"THE CONFESSIONS OF ST. ZACH is better than good. It reminded me of the great classics, especially the ones whose writers primary focus was on humanity and the rise and fall of the human condition ...Joseph Conrad's HEART OF DARKNESS and William Golding's LORD OF THE FLIES." – from noted writer Gord Rollo's introduction

"...THE BURDEN OF INDIGO is the absolute best post-apocalyptic novel of the modern era." – from award-winning writer Brian Keene's introduction

"His words bristle with a muscular intensity that strengthens any book or magazine lucky to contain him." – Scott Edelman, editor of SF Weekly and Sci-Fi Channel Magazine
