Editorial Reviews

Review

"Karmic Ties" universal themes of loss of innocence, greed and corruption, man's inhumanity to man- and their inevitable karmic consequences- have rarely been as vividly expressed as they are in the raw, new novel which functions on a multiple of psychological, societal, and spiritual levels. The world should pay attention to this one. You will never forget it." -- Jonathon Ray Spinney, Authro of The Awakening of Red Feather

5.0 out of 5 stars "The Godfather" for Asia, January 2, 2000
By 
M. A Lander (Tarzana, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Karmic Ties (Paperback)
One hell of a read! Can't wait for another from this first-time novelist. So well evoked, you'll feel like you're in Thailand... A warning, you might want to check your passport and dysentery shots before reading because this book is so detailed, it will transport you to the wonders and mystique of Southeast Asia.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book, March 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Karmic Ties (Paperback)
Karmic Ties is a classic, realistic story of a young man's rise from extreme poverty to the pinacle of power. Although it is of special interest to anyone who loves Thailand the book is a very interesting, educational, and entertaining read for anyone looking for something that is better than 95% of the mass market best sellers. Can't wait for this first time authors' next book. Highly recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars a slow read, but sometimes interesting, May 1, 2000
By 
david a gray (California, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Karmic Ties (Paperback)
I found the book interesting in that we get a lot of exposition about Thailand from someone who obviously loves the place. The story and characters, however, were weak and uninteresting. Had the author tried a travel guide, it would've been a heck of a good one.
