Pop Kult Warlord

Soda Pop Soldier, Book 2

By: Nick Cole

Narrated by: Eric Michael Summerer

It's way more than just a game!

PerfectQuestion is back! He's running and gunning his way across an incredible civilization-building game set on Mars. But this time he's employed as an online ringer for a corrupt dictatorship and trying to avoid getting "disappeared" in a reckless world of intrigue, epic parties, sports cars, and women who are as dangerous as they are beautiful.

Five million in gold says he can do it and put the next Sultan on the throne by leading a rag-tag clan of gaming jihadis to victory, but revolution and revolt are afoot. The long knives are out in Calistan for the hero of Soda Pop Soldier and anyone else who gets in a murderous prince's way.

Falls upon its own sword.

Within the covers of this book are the seeds of a good story, but the story is hampered by the perpetual, hammering references to real world, modern political bickering. It is every bit as ham-fisted and poorly integrated into the plot as any appropriated property the author might have his own grievance with from major comic book publishers or other entertainment sources.

In short, the author hamstrings his own story and characters in an attempt to showcase his grievances, in every way becoming the thing he rails against.

Nick Cole Does it Again - Heavy Handed History

Nick Cole in his visceral, heavy handed writing makes everything real and inescapable, including his overt political attitude. Perfect Question has a new trial: being a strategist for a dictatorship in Islamofascist Calistan (Southern California). Part of the way through selling his soul he gets to see how cruel is path is.

Will that be enough to keep him safe and bring him to happiness? Nick Cole pulls you through every step of the way and I felt compelled to finish this in one sitting.

Nick Cole is an American Treasure

Do it. Listen to this book. if you are here then you probably listened to the 1st one... if so, what are you waiting for?
This book kept me hooked from page 1. Nick Cole is amazing. His mind must be a very interesting place, and maybe Im wrong but from his words in these books, and others ive checked out (Galaxy's Edge brought me here lol) I believe he's a pretty good dude. Either way, his writing style and imagination are unique. And honestly, one day, I hope he gets the credit he deserves. Kudos on another hit. Will we get another? please?

Something new and damn exciting

Cole knows how to write action and his stories are so interesting that you really do not know where they are going but it’s a hell of a time finding out.
