The spy fiction genre (sometimes called political thriller) arose before the World War I, at about the same time that the first modern intelligence agencies were being formed. Since its inception, the spy genre has usually enjoyed great popular success, although in the years following the end of the Cold War (the Berlin Wall fell in November 1989) readership waned. The 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States reversed that trend, reigniting readers' interest in the world at large. Seldom has this literary genre met with much critical acclaim, although there have been remarkably literate and politically insightful books published in it. Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Thomas Jefferson Never Burned A Witch     By Ken Krasity J.S. Malawi, a dedicated but detached atheist, is drawn into a fluid and unpredictable world of religious extremism, anti-establishment rebellion and ruthless self-interest.  Christian, Islamic and anarcho-capitalist zealots have set in motion conflicting plans that could cascade into global catastrophe.  J.S. must decide whether his deeply-held secular values allow or even require him to help a band of rebels deploy a purloined biological agent that could solve the problem of religious terrorism once and for all, but with potentially dire “collateral damage.”  Before he can do anything, however, J.S. must figure out whether he can trust anyone in a paranoid environment where even supposed allies manipulate and sacrifice one another to further their causes. Join J.S. in this fast-paced, quirkily comic thriller, and enter a near-future world of governments beholden to religious fanatics, of giant stratospheric airships and microbial assaults, of moral ambivalence and treachery.  Cover Art: T.L.
