Stronghold of the Enemy

"A good read. Intense." - Richie W.

Stronghold of the Enemy is both a warning and a possible road map to education freedom. Battling the government education system and the sinister forces that support it, Andrew and his fellow teen friends challenge one of Satan's biggest and oldest strongholds in America. Initially using his natural gifts of a keen intellect and persuasive arguments, he later turns to the supernatural to fight forces beyond the temporal world that have enslaved millions of young minds and bodies.

"The author was able to weave complex research into a fictional story in a way that actually expressed the research, but not in a boring, need-to-be-an-expert way. Very nicely done." - Jeff G.

Andrew Hayes is a high school senior who comes to the conclusion that government schools and compulsory schooling in general crushes the dreams and imaginations of students. He sees that the system ultimately ruins their natural love of learning and condemns many of them to living a life far below their potential. Finding Andrew too effective in his quest to slay the schooling beast, shadowy government operatives fight him and his message through kidnappings, threats and violence in order to stop his mission from succeeding. Andrew lives out the Marines' motto of Improvise, Adapt and Overcome. But he soon discovers that human effort alone is insufficient to bring down this stronghold of the enemy. His seemingly eccentric Grandma guides him into the knowledge and relationships that he needs in order to fulfill his destiny. Will that be enough to bring down this evil empire?
