Re: Review of The Conscripted Extremist

I wonder, knowing that this is a fictional political thriller, how Marc Ross inspired himself to do this book. In this kind of novel, reality spreads all over, so I was thinking which of these experiences written has correlation with something Ross has seen or he was close by.
People in the comments says that this is a very intriguing book and that has lots of twists and questions to answer. I celebrate that!

This review about Gabriel Bentley’s investigation into the actions of the Left Wing Leaders is really intriguing. It’s a brilliant mix of politics and detective work, which makes the book stand out. I’m curious to see what actually happened to Gabe and how his investigation played out. Thank you for your review.

It is nice to read that the book interweaves different themes and reveals what unchecked power and ambition can result in. There is so much food for thought here, and I cannot wait to Gabe as he goes about his mission.
The review is informative. Kudos, @Onyinyechi Obi.

Great review! The book sounds fast-paced and riveting, but I am not into political narratives, so I will pass on this one. It promises to be an exciting book, though.

This hits too close to home for me to read for pleasure, but I hope it inspires its audience to think about the causes and consequences of extremism and divisiveness. Thank you for your review.

The book sounds interesting and intriguing with lots of events that are primarily focused on politics which is definitly not my cup of tea. Still I'm sure the book will find its reader. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

I love a good, well-written political potboiler, although sometimes I think we are living in an actual, frightening political potboiler from which there is no escape. Nevertheless, it seems the author covers a lot of good ground in this one, and it might be worth checking out.
