PRAISE FOR THE SANTA TRILOGY

  • Banning Santa takes readers on a rollercoaster ride, quickly gathering momentum to pull you into its captivating plot.

    Literary Titan

  • Attempt to ban public depictions of Santa Claus sends two congressional staffers scouring the globe for a "good", realistic Santa. Half the pair hates the other half. How can they, as polar political opposites, manage to work together? It's Christmas Magic!

    Amazon Review

  • I loved it. It's political without being partisan. The people that I dislike... it's because of their actions, not their party affiliations. It's hilarious - so many great quotes. "Politics is like war without the death toll." and "Not those two. They're blunt objects and just as sharp."
