The Last Qumranian

Praise for The Last Qumranian Basile’s debut novel is impressive and consuming. I had hesitations about reading this novel but did so at the request of a dear friend. I was pleasantly surprised. It was shocking and thoughtful. Honestly difficult to put down. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in alternate timelines, fantastic tales of cyberpunk like science and a plot twist that demands your attention. Normally I would expound on the storyline but honestly that would spoil a great read. Give this book a chance. You won’t regret it! – R.D. Perry, Publisher Black Ink, Cedar Grove * Typically, I don’t tend to write reviews. However, I was asked to give an honest review for an advance reading copy. For his first novel I was impressed. The characters come alive and jump off the pages. The plot is shocking, and I am honestly looking forward to the sequel. Set in a dystopian alternate future, the reader is invited to explore a desolate future that has one desperate hope left. This book has much to offer – time travel, action, science fiction with a historical twist that must be read to be believed. If you enjoy fantastic stories that will keep you on the edge of your seat, this is it. – Larry Evans, novelist, scientist and historian * What an impressive Tour de Force this book is. Knowing Joe personally, I must admit, I never expected his foray into writing to be so engrossing and difficult to put down. I’ve heard him speak on many occasions and experienced his ability to weave a story together. But this blew me away. It’s a difficult to describe book. The reader will be pulled into a timeline twisting, history altering, mind bending journey into the fantastic. Do you like stories with great action? Check. Mind bending cyber science? Check. Demons? Check. A plot twist that will make you reread pages more than once because you are in disbelief and wondering how things can be pulled together? Check. It’s my great pleasure to invite you to read this story. Keep an open mind and expect to be impressed and a story that is thought provoking and will stay with you long after you put the book down. Strap in. You are in for a wild ride! – Jim Callahan, author of The Blood of Angels Trilogy, Power Lines: Mastering your Imagination volumes 1-10 and the forthcoming A Crooked Path: Finding Grace * Impressive. Action packed and hits you with one of the coolest twists I’ve seen. Read this. – T. Johnson, author of Tribe
