Minnesota Cold

The amazing thing about this bracing Orwellian vision of a post-nuclear future is that it s hopeful. Full of compelling family drama and characters who believe in human dignity and the possibility of freedom even against the odds. It s a great read. Alan Davis, author of Alone with the Owl A lovely, haunting tale. Very compelling, encompassing the wonders of modern medicine with the havoc bio-testing might do to humans, but always staying grounded in the ways of the human heart. Mary Logue, author of Point No Point A thoughtful and thought-provoking thriller. The twists and turns in Sallie s journey will keep the reader flipping the pages. Keep a pair of mukluks close. Minnesota Cold is chilling. Charles Locks, Greater Trouble in Lesser Antilles Readers who have loved 1984, Brave New World, Soylent Green, Fahrenheit 451, or The Handmaid's Tale will devour this book, too. Rigorously plotted and carefully written. The author brings Minnesota into a frightening ficional future with no holds barred and no politically correct nods to outmoded decorums. Ian Graham Leask, author, publisher and host of KFAI's "Write On! Radio." Cynthia Kraack limns a quietly sinister landscape in this post-apocalyptic novel. Minnesota Cold is a classic cautionary tale set in the day after tomorrow that should strike fear not only into the hearts of Baby Boomers but also of thinking people of all ages.
