- (1888PressRelease) March 25, 2012 - Thunderstorm Books releases Robert Ford's Samson and Denial as an e-book, available on Amazon Kindle.
"Samson Gallows is an average guy. He loves his wife, loses more than he wins, and lives his days in the gray zone between right and wrong. --- After a junkie walks into his pawn shop with a mummified head, Samson is thrown into a downward spiral through the streets of Philadelphia, getting more blood on his hands wherever he goes. --- In 24 hours, Samson learns how deep betrayal can run, how strong the bonds of love are, and that winning can sometimes require sacrificing everything-including himself."
Reviews for Ford's Samson and Denial have been glowing, including this from midnightreaping.com
"...and that's when Robert Ford cranked it up a gear and planted his foot; taking us from zero to sixty in 3.2 seconds. I won't say too much so as not to give anything away but the story while short, at 125 pages, packs a punch equal to that of some of the biggest writers on the scene today. I've read lots of short stories by a lot of writers and Im hard pushed to remember one I enjoyed as much as I enjoyed Samson and Denial."
thewordzombie.com described Samson and Denial: "While navigating this whirlwind, Ford writes with a gritty style that wastes few words and pulls even fewer punches. He's not afraid to be blunt, but it's never visceral for the sake of shock value alone. With such a potentially rich canvas of situations, it would be easy to lose the story, but he gets inside the heads of his characters and is happy to give the reader a guided tour. Samson is a robust protagonist who makes a connection with the reader in spite of (and at times because of) his flaws."
Samson and Denial is Ford's first release, and the print version has sold out. Thunderstorm Books is a small press publisher of limited and trade editions. The Kindle version of Samson and Denial can be purchased directly from Amazon.
Ford is currently at work on finishing his first full-length novel.
