I got the book the first day it was out. Saw him in the interview with Matt lauer and ran to B&N to pick it up. Amazing is all I can say.

I just mailed two copies of NEXT TO DIE to Marcus Luttrell, through my publicist, to his publicist (Hatchette Books owns us both). One copy was for him, the other for his mother. I have felt a special connection to Marcus for two years, even before I knew his name. I'm so upset that he was doing book signings right near my home town while I was in his home state of Texas giving a presentation at Romance Writers of America's National convention. I missed my chance to meet him! Fingers crossed that he'll write me back since I wrote him a personal letter. He personifies everything heroic and noble that I love to write about and my readers love to read. GOD BLESS HIM ALWAYS!

Lone Survivor is a MUST READ book. You will laugh, you will cry, but mostly you will be proud of these men.

Marcus Luttrell has given us the most descriptive book ever about the realities of war. Expect to stay up all night reading it and have a new box of tissues handy because you are going to bawl your eyes out.

I pray Marcus finds peace from PTSD and that he finds his own "copper Penny."

Read this Blog and the comments at the bottom of the Blog.

Keep checking back with these people to see when/if Marcus' book tour continues.

Marcus will be at a huge book fair in Texas in Nov. Read all about it in above link.

Now if only we knew if Marliss was going to tour the country? I think she needs to go to Texas in Nov. and push 'em (book signings that is) out. worthy

I hope to hell they don't make a movie. They will ruin it with *artistic license.*

It looks like Marcus took his time to choose who he thinks will honor his fallen friends.

Let's hope they allow him to be involved and make the best movie they can.

I saw that Lone Survivor was back to #2 on the NY Times Bestseller List - and Bill O'Reilly mentioned the book again the other night. There was also a review in People magazine.

Marcus got arrested for defending our country!!!

See the video here:

This is a 13:29 min long *speech* . Don't miss a second of this one. Be sure to have the volume up before you load the page. It starts immediately once the page has loaded.

Also, this link is from Marcus' appearance at the Texas Book Fair last November. It is about an hour long. I think at first Marcus was going to go, then he backed out (I am guessing he didn't like the author they paired him up with) but then Marcus was back on the roster. They held it at a church, so I think Marcus felt a bit restrained in speaking his mind. Here is the link:
