Rating: Summary: Mind Numbing Review: Every once in a great while, I will read a book that makes me think - not just while I am reading it, but as I go to sleep at night, while I am taking a shower, driving down the road, etc. This is one of those books. In this book, it is hard to tell where the fiction ends and where reality begins.Although the editing is a bit rough, the underlying story is totally engrossing. There is a message in this book, and we would all do well to heed that message.
Rating: Summary: A Rich Piece of Storytelling Review: I am amazed and in awe of the gift displayed by this author. What a way to expose the truth, through the light of rich storytelling! Unfortunately, our blessed, free populous have dug ourselves so deep into a self-absorbed stupor, that we have allowed the enemy to blindfold our very existence. I remember around the time I was in college (mid-50's to early 60's)that Russia proclaimed they would destroy us from within. I think it was Krueschev who stated that they would take over our media to feed us our own poison. Well today, I don't believe the media has any regard for truth, if such truth is in any way in conflict with it's programed agenda. (The Big Question - who created it's program?) And our infamous Judiciary! How many years has it taken for our Federal Judiciary to become stocked with a sufficient number enemy-planted judges to do the amount of damage that we are now almost ready to give up our own Constitution. And how was this accomplished - with a few big lies, in the name of social justice, that out sleepy citizens appetites' have been pre-conditioned to follow. . The fiction portrayed in The Slash Brokers is so real-like that the author's keen eye must have been exposed to many facets of "what goes on in our sleepy existence". What a gift to get it out this way. Note the January 8, 1998 letter at the end of the book, which must be fact. It's crazy - if such a letter existed naming President Bush, instead of former President Clinton, the media would be all over it like flies on honey. But with Clinton's name in such a letter, it just doesn't fit into their agenda. Rich in detail and rich in great storytelling, this book gives a compelling picture of where our great country is headed if we let the Slash Brokers to work their games, aided by fake politicians and other power brokers interested only in their personal power. This book has helped call me to action. While I had some causes that would call me to action, from The Slash Brokers, I now know there are related causes (and perhaps non-related causes) that cry out for action to save our great country. I pray that whomever reads this book would be stirred to wake-up and help clean-up the mess we have allowed in our country. Tony Di Guglielmo tonyd@xicom.com

Rating: Summary: Hollywood Should Use It Review: I am deeply moved and impressed with this captivating work. THE SLASH BROKERS carries a powerful and troubling message and a wake-up call to Americans everywhere. It should be made into a movie, but unfortunately, its substance does not fall within the scope of things that excites Hollywood. Someone like a Steven Spielburg, however, just might see it as an exciting, highly-profitable, worthy, and even a noble undertaking. In my view, it would make a great movie that would draw gigantic numbers of church-going America -- and even many of those who seek to remove God from the fabric of our land. Jeff Barganier has put forth a timely effort to correct an awful moral wrong, and its message needs to find its way to the hearts and minds of us all.
Rating: Summary: A MUST-READ FOR ALL CONCERNED ABOUT MORALITY OF THIS COUNTRY Review: I simply could not put this book down - This is a book that needs to be read more than once because of the sheer complexity of the plot. It is frightening in its reality. Liberals will hate this book for its honesty and reference to events that have already taken place but have been "spun" by the media for the politically correct. Your conscience will bother you in reading this book - not necessarily by what you have done, but by what we as a nation have allowed to happen to this country and our moral fiber. I have had the opportunity of personally meeting both the author and his wife. These are not extremist, anti-government individuals. Jeff has an important message to deliver and this country needs to listen.
Rating: Summary: Brilliant and extremely well done! Review: I wanted to read this book because I know the author personally and enjoy local "talent." I am usually a slow reader but could not put this book down once I started! The Slash Brokers is very fast paced and powerfully enlightening. The author has a very keen eye and is very much in touch with the current state of the world. Excellent read and one I highly recommend to everyone! It was especially refreshing not to have to read profanity!

Rating: Summary: It was compelling, alarming, but ultimately hopeful. Review: Initially, I resisted reading this book because it isn't the usual subject matter that draws me. However, when the fourth insistent recommendation (all by close friends) came, I relented. Once begun, the book rarely got put down. I felt compelled to read it through in two nights, and then spent a number of days digesting the disturbing information it contained. The manner in which Jeff entwined four very diverse subjects (investment broking, the sale of body parts, China/U.S. relations, and a love story) was skillfully done without losing integrity in any area. Even though the subject matter is frightening, I felt an underlying strand of hope in the character of Stuart Dealier. Our world's hope is that we continue to have honorable men and women who are unwilling to part with the integrity of their Christian morals and values...like Stuart Dealier or author Jeff Barganier.
Rating: Summary: Absolutely a must-read! Review: The authors father, Brookes Bargainier, lives two doors down from me. I was having coffee with him one morning when he bragged to me, "This is the book my son wrote". I borrowed it from him and read it in four hours. While I didn't find it particularly well written, and even less well edited, the story it told swept my mind up into a maelstrom and flung it far and wide. The events portrayed, while horrible enough as fiction, are made even moreso with the knowledge that they're based on fact. It is indeed a sad commentary on the state of affairs in America today, and the road down which we are headed.
Rating: Summary: Move over Clancy... here comes Barganier? Review: Who in the world is this Jeff S. Barganier, the author of The Slash Brokers? If you don't know him now you will soon. His writing style, content and conviction grab you. He is destined to be a "Best Seller" author. I thought, I would just read for a few minutes and put the book away to read later. But, Jeff had other plans for those fortunate enough to find his book on some obscure Amazon cyber shelf. Slash Brokers is the best read I have had in years. Treat your self this Saturday to ice cold tea, a porch swing and Jeff Barganier's The Slash Brokers.
