Truth wrapped in fiction has the power to engage the reader’s mind, heart, and spirit. So it has the power to transform.
Order of Books
1) On The Edge 2) The President 3) Enemy In The Room 4) Nation On The Edge
While each novel has its own stand-alone story threads, and they can be read in any order, several key characters do repeat across all four books.
In Nation On The Edge, most of the characters from On The Edge repeat, only they are twenty-five years older.
Parker Hudson’s Book Reviews
Parker Hudson
I guess I’m a bit of an anomaly:
• A conservative Southerner who believes strongly in our nation’s unique founding ideals of individual, God-given freedoms,
• A civil rights activist who battled the segregationist Democratic Party in the Georgia Challenge Delegation in Chicago,
• A Naval officer who loved steering a guided missile cruiser around the Mediterranean,
• A commercial real estate entrepreneur and teacher for five decades in the U.S. and Russia,
• A Deplorable clinging to my guns and Bible, with a Master’s Degree from The London School of Economics as a Marshall Scholar,
A husband, father of five, grandfather, pilot, scuba-diver, author, and, most importantly,
• A sinner saved by grace alone.
So that’s the melting pot from which has emerged four novels about personal transformation, and many essays focused on Faith, Economics, and Policy.
I hope you will engage, and that we will seek Truth together.

Let me stipulate up front that this post contains several generalizations which I know do not apply to everyone in every case described. But focus with me on the larger picture, and I hope you will find the generalizations to be useful, as well as the many embedded...
“You Should Be More Careful. Here’s What’s Going to Happen…”
We are collectively dealing with too many unnecessary social disasters. Henry Hazlitt called these disasters the inevitable result of focusing on the immediate and the isolated, rather than on the long term and the whole. Others call them unintended consequences....
Iran’s Ancestors Rebuilt Israel
At a recent Ken Boa Bible Study, we discussed Ezra 5-7 and Nehemiah, which detail the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem, along with the city itself, at the end of the Babylonian Exile from 521 to 435 BC. There are many interesting truths in these passages, but...
