MIRACLE MAN FEATURES A READERS CLUB GUIDE
William R. Leibowitz has been lauded as a "mastermind storyteller with a unique literary voice" and has been favorably compared by readers and critics to Michael Crichton, Robin Cook, Stephen King, John Grisham and Ken Follett.
The story of Robert James Austin proves the talent of William R. Leibowitz. Rushing like a river in a torrential rain, Miracle Man stuns and entertains, swivels and twirls above and beyond that which we know. Absolutely brilliant in plot and characters, I could not put this novel down for even a second. This novel pulses and throbs with a story that proves both vulnerable and heart breaking. Brilliantly written, utterly entertaining and un-put-downable, Miracle Man is one of those novels that cannot be missed. STUNNING." --The Review Boards
"This is a magnificent story. Miracle Man is destined to be a best seller. I gave it one of my very rare A+ ratings. This is a dramatically superior novel." --blogcriticsorg.
"The Only Book You Should Be Reading Now" --William R. Leibowitz is a mastermind storyteller and his lead character, Robert James Austin, becomes so alive on the pages. The aching realness of him is what sets this book apart from other stories with superheroes or anti-heroes. This book is incredible." --outnumbered3to1blog
"Miracle Man is a heartbreaking, inspirational and beautifully written story. I was absolutely consumed by it the minute I started reading. Robert James Austin is one of the best characters I have ever read. This is an incredible book." --Savannah Mae Blog
"Have you ever read a book that left you in a stunned silence? No? Then read Miracle Man. What book has that kind of power? None besides this one that I have just read. Miracle Man is absolutely amazing. This is a great story. Miracle Man will have you look at life in general in a whole new way." --feedmeinbooksreviewblog
"Superbly written, and faultlessly executed, Miracle Man will raise much interest in Leibowitz and rightly single him out as an author to watch. This book is a genre busting thriller. Highly original and high voltage." --Book Viral
"And so a gripping novel of psychological tension becomes much more than your usual 'medical thriller', and is a pick for any who want high octane action and emotionally-charged reading right up to an unexpected, gripping conclusion." ---Midwest Book Review
"This book's got a great storyline and genius characters. Miracle Man flows, it draws you in, and it finishes strong. Miracle Man really pulls you in--you just start to feel it. Miracle Man is perfect."---Sunshine Mountain Book Review Blog
----The victim of an unspeakable crime, an infant rises to become a new type of superhero. Unlike any that have come before him, he is not a fanciful creation of animators, he is real. So begins the saga of ROBERT JAMES AUSTIN, the greatest genius in human history. But where did his extraordinary intelligence come from and why do so many want to destroy him? Aided by two exceptional women, one of whom will become his unlikely lover, Austin struggles against abandonment and betrayal. But the forces that oppose him are more powerful than even he can understand.
REVERED by many, REVILED by some, but none can doubt that Robert James Austin is REMARKABLE.

"Miracle Man is highly original. It's a fresh idea. In all my reading, I haven't seen this plot before." --James S. Thayer, best selling thriller author
"The story of Robert James Austin proves the talent of William R. Leibowitz. Rushing like a river in a torrential rain, Miracle Man stuns and entertains, swivels and twirls above and beyond that which we know. Absolutely brilliant in plot and characters, I could not put this novel down for even a second. This novel pulses and throbs with a story that proves both vulnerable and heart breaking. Brilliantly written, utterly entertaining and un-put-downable, Miracle Man is one of those novels of the year that cannot be missed. STUNNING. 5 STARS." ....The Review Broads
"To call this novel a 'medical thriller' would be to do it an injustice. Miracle Man is about miracles, motivations, and the ability to withstand moral and ethical temptations against all odds. Readers are treated to a plot with many twists and turns: it holds intrigue, describes compulsions and diversions, and paints a powerful picture of the search for privacy, as much as meaning. This gripping novel of psychological tension is a pick for any who want high octane action and emotionally-charged reading right up to an unexpected, gripping conclusion." -- D. Donovan, Midwest Book Review
"In his debut novel, "Miracle Man", William R. Leibowitz puts a new twist on the thriller. Along the way, he exhibits a keen knowledge of science and medicine. Some readers will see in Robert James Austin (the protagonist), a leading spiritual figure for the modern era." --Palmetto Book Review
"Once in a while, I come across a book that is just one of the most amazingly written works I have had the pleasure to review --"Miracle Man" is one of those books. Mr. Leibowitz' book kept me glued to its pages. Every chapter was a joy to read. "Miracle Man" is destined to be a best seller. I gave it one of my very rare A+ ratings. It had everything that one could ask for in a great novel. This is a magnificent story." William Phenn for Reader Views
"I highly recommend "Miracle Man" --it's compelling and I enjoyed it very much. The novel's characters are unique and interesting. The book's main character and hero is Robert Austin. Leibowitz has created a character that is both a hero and an anti-hero and does not fit into a pattern or formula. The story flows and has enough twists and changes to always keep you entertained." ...William Hartgrove for Reader Views
"The author has written a great novel. It flows, it draws you in, and it finishes strong. As for plot, you've got a genius character, who we follow through his life, and the great thing is that this book isn't over anyone's head. It's a thriller, not just in the hidden agendas and motives but also on a personal level, because you really start to care about Bobby, and want to see Bobby happy and succeeding in what he chooses. It really pulls you in, you just start to feel it."... Sunshine and Mountains Book Review Blog
"I only put this book down to use the bathroom, it had me reeled in very quickly. If you enjoy suspense and thrillers, then this one should be on your summer to-read list for sure." - Confessions of a Psychotic Housewife Blog
“Underpinned by a clever and sophisticated plot, high voltage superhero action makes for a genre busting thriller in Miracle Man by author William R. Leibowitz. A highly original and absorbing read, he brings a unique literary voice to an ever burgeoning genre, but with little interest in trite stereo typical heroes or a world that conforms to simplistic tropes where black and white prevails. Yes, Robert Austin is extraordinary, but to simply label him a superhero isn’t enough without understanding what it takes to become a superhero and this is where Leibowitz truly excels. Rendering Austin’s world in shades of grey, he is both flawed and heroic with moments of vulnerability and great resolve. Writing with an acerbic pen and an exacting eye for detail, Leibowitz gives him real room to grow and you have to admire him in his pursuit of authenticity. It creates a real sense of place and purpose into which Austin must ultimately decide where he fits and provides for some splendid twists to his tale.
Superbly written, and faultlessly executed, Miracle Man will raise much interest in Leibowitz and rightly single him out as an author to watch. Definitely deserving of a place on your bookshelf, it is recommended without reservation!” …Book Viral
“I had put off reading Miracle Man until my son left town for school because I had a feeling it was going to entrap me. There was something about the way the eyes on the cover kept staring at me that I knew there was no way I was going to put the book down. I was right, it was spell-binding from the very first sentence. Miracle Man began with a horrifying jolt that sent you on a page turning thrill ride that not even the ending could release you from.
William R. Leibowitz is a mastermind storyteller and his lead character, Robert James Austin, becomes so alive on the pages. The aching realness of him is what sets this book apart from other stories with superheroes or anti-heroes. His feelings of inadequacy, abandonment and betrayal are all too real to those of us who understand those feelings. And for some of us, what it feels like to get lost in the madness of our own mind and the inescapable nightmares we find waiting in the dark.
This book is incredible. It could have ended cheesy, it could have ended overdone or a hundred different things… but William R. Leibowitz ended it spectacularly. I was very pleasantly surprised and excited, so much so that I still haven’t been able to get the story out of my head. Get this book!” .....outnumbered3to1blog

From the time he was a toddler, his parents struggled with their unique son. After seeking assistance from medical professionals, they ultimately abandon Robert. Eventually, as Robert grows, he outpaces his teachers and slowly but surely becomes a superhero who uses his immense brainpower for good. His potential attracts some powerful enemies, however.
Throughout the book, Robert grapples with his identity. Where does his intelligence come from? How can be find acceptance when everyone usually has a motive to be in his presence? Why are people seeking him out for their own ends? This deeply fascinating book seeks the answers to these questions.
Although I enjoyed this book, there were some minor missteps. I noticed a few grammatical errors that could be fixed with a quick glance. I enjoyed the characters, but I felt some characters had little development or too much emphasis was placed on descriptions over conversations to reveal their motives and personalities. Overall, however, this was an immensely readable book.

wrote to author to say how I liked the book, he kindly replied,with an email autograph front cover, nice gesture. ..
This is one of those thrillers that’s just written perfectly, the world that’s created seems so very realistic and I had to keep reminding myself that the story isn’t actually true.
I decided to try this book out because of the big pharma, medical conspiracy topics that it tackles, a subject I am keenly interested in. If you too are interested in how pharmaceutical corporations can manipulate and control the general public and world events then I’d highly recommend this book.
Written in a very pragmatic, clear and detailed way, I found I easily became drawn into the story and once I was I devoured the entire novel in a very short space of time.
I cannot stress highly enough how wonderful it was to read and kept me gripped and on edge until the very end. I totally put everything else I had to do on the shelf.
I love the idea of fiction with a various genres, and this book delivers a massive amount of interesting themes on science, politics, spiritual and metaphyisical ideas and all the while taking me on a thrill ride with plenty of twists and turns.
The idea that one man or any man (or woman for that matter) could create and are creating cures for some of the worlds most devastating diseases.
Its amazing to think of the possibillites where Miracle Man will go in the next book and I will eagerly wait for the next installment for Mr Leibowitz to write more about our hero.
