Commentary:
The
conspiracy theory is really true! As an ex-barista and
coffee addict, I just have to say, "Now it all
makes sense." This is a great read that kept me
laughing all the way through as I encountered characters
I knew well from my coffee shop days. Once you read
this, you'll still be hopelessly addicted, but at least
you'll think twice about trying new flavors.

You'll
think twice about that next cup of coffee! Clearly penned
by a detailed and imaginative mind, you can almost taste
the "Mind Melt" with each page. It may make
you switch to decaf by the end!

Awesome
read!!! I would recommend this book to anyone who wants
a good read over the summer or any other time. I can't
wait until the next book comes out!!!

From
the first sip...er...page, National Darkroast Day [best
read with a double latte] absorbs the reader into a
colossal, metaphorical struggle between a balanced way
of life and overindulgent American consumption. Presenting
a consequential message for today's consumerist society...the
reader can experience a gripping battle between good
and evil manifested as toxic coffee served with a cherry
on top.

I
like coffee...and I like action movies. And those two
things brew together quite nicely in National Darkroast
Day. This crazy action sci-fi look at what happens
when capitalism goes way too far is a very fun read!
- J. Bintz, author of
A Moment of Clarity
It's
an easy page-turner...an exciting and stimulating read!
I'm sure this author will have many more books in store.

An
enjoyable foray into a coffee world that seems quite
distant from ours, but probably isn't.The author's enthusiasm
comes through the pages and the characters he shares
with us.

A
satirical jab at American coffee culture and corporate
greed/automatons, it’s most definitely worth a
read!
- Kenny, Austin, TX
I
really enjoyed it! I couldn't stop reading...the true
mark of a good story!
- J. Zamparelli, Boston,
MA
We
both thoroughly
enjoyed it! Wouldn't it make a great movie? Got a kick
out of Guerrero and the Amigos...and liked the Source,
always the brilliant scientist.
- B. and J. Wilcox, Washington,
DC
This
is a fantastic book. It is freaking hilarious! It's
an intelligent, sharply written satire that comments
on corporate greed and American consumerist culture.
Good characters, great plot, really strong pacing, and
most importantly, a fun read.
