My New Novel Released


Release of The Magnum Society

My new novel The Magnum Society has now been released and is available on Amazon. To check it out just go to the novel's website on: MagnumSociety.

The Magnum Society is available as both a printed book (254 pages) and an e-book.  I will write more about the novel and the background of the story, creating an independent theme page for it on this blog. Finally, I plan to add a section on Comedy as a genre under my blog's theme page Inspiration so as to cover all the three genres I work within.
 

The Magnum Society is a romantic comedy and satirical allegory of contemporary society and its startling incapacity to renew and reform itself by developing and promoting new progressive ideas on a large social scale. This story’s Magnum Society was created originally by a small group of intellectuals as a forum for progressives and political activists, an active network for social idealists and political reformers. However, as a group of cynical businessmen and financial speculators take control of the Society, totally discarding its original intentions and values, it quickly turns into a club for hedonists and reckless jetsetters.
The old intellectual elite soon leave the Society in total disillusion with modern people and their incapacity to organise along progressive and idealist lines. The Magnum Society seems stuck in the mire, particularly after a couple of attempted coups by intellectual progressives fail to unseat the ruling business establishment.

 
However, from a totally unexpected corner the establishment slowly begins to renew itself from within through a feminist and femeconomy inspired revolution as fierce and powerful women take full control, purge the Magnum Society of alpha males and successfully bring it back to its original purpose: promoting equality, justice and social progress. Female leadership thus comes to save the Society and ennoble its original purpose, but only after a hard fought power struggle.
 
I hope you will all truly enjoy The Magnum Society.
