maxillus As the publisher of a fantastic book that has been banned and repressed by others it saddens me to see that so many authors are being denied a voice, especially in a country such as the USA which is supposedlyh the home of free speech.
It is up to readers everywhere to make their voices heard and demand the right to choose what they read. (PS our book is DANNY by Chancery Stone - it's not for the faint hearted but for those who can stomach it it's the read of a lifetime! Plug over)

Hannah Evans I think that all books should be available for anyone to read whenever they want no matter what some people might think is "unsuitable" for children. Books were made so that people could read them and be informed. Free Speech is that anyone can say what they think is right. It doesnt matter if someone else thinks differently. So if an author wants to voice their opinion dont challenge them. 11/28/2004
