"What sets this book apart is its raw originality." BookLife Fiction Prize 2019 Semifinalist Judge on Simon's Mansion.

BookLife Prize 2019 Semi Finalist Plot/Idea:  10 out of 10 Originality:  10 out of 10 Prose:  10 out of 10 Character/Execution:  10 out of 10 Overall:  10.00 out of 10 Assessment: Plot : Though Poe offers a thoroughly compelling and propulsive plot, the author displays a somewhat impatient tendency to skim-over potentially rich scenes in favor of more slow-going descriptions and allusions.

The Powell Legacy Series - New Introduction

  I've created an Introduction I am going to add to each of my Simon novels: Simon Says, Simple Simon, Simon's Mansion, and the one I am working on now. poebooks.net Some stories are born from memory; others grow from imagination. The Simon Powell novels live somewhere in between. Simon’s journey begins in the shadow of my own—a young man searching for meaning, caught in the web of an all-encompassing belief system, and later grappling with the fallout of leaving it behind. His struggles with faith, identity, addiction, and reinvention are rooted in my experiences. Much of what Simon recounts about his time in the Unification Church, his work on Reverend Moon’s legal defense, and the eventual unraveling of his life in Los Angeles reflects my own history. Like Simon, I was an insider—a believer who dedicated years to a movement that shaped me and then shattered me. Much of what Simon recounts about his time in the Unification Church and his work on Reverend Moon’s legal defense ...
