The Age of Stoning by Dan Potter review
A chaotic satire follows David Farmer a naive ex Kansan in New York who writes fantasies and is drawn into rival underground plots. A hidden billionaire funds a prairie city dream while a fascist group seeks to seize power and kidnappings multiply with a Mafia figure and rock stars in disguise. The finale leaves the author’s daring concept unresolved.
