THE REDEMPTION SERIES BOOK V

My characters fought through each volume in the series to defend our democracy from being demolished by a tiny clique of wealthy nationalists who intend to dismantle the federal government to eliminate taxes, regulations, and restrictions, rescind all rights and benefits granted to our citizens since the Civil War, and institute a “Christian” autocracy that will dictate every aspect of our society…the laws that govern us, our right to make medical decisions about our own bodies, the education our children receive, the entertainment we enjoy, and our right to be who we want to be and love whoever we choose.

This final volume addresses the ultimate confrontation between massive demonstrations organized by the All People Matter movement and the armed insurrectionists who attack every rally.

Every voter should read this book before they march into the polls!

Every Voter should read Rick's new novel

Rick Stiller is an author, award-winning photographer, musician, and Master Gardener. 

 

His books depict the good ole' boy environment of the deep south and challenges readers to examine the good and bad aspects of the human experience that too many of us are reluctant to acknowledge.

 

As recent events attest, the fiction in his books reflects the polarization and upheaval, protests, and violence of this precise moment through the lens of our history. Stiller's novels reveal, time and time again, the essence of the real sinister powers driving the conflict between right and left, have and have not's, white society and people of color as a distraction from their campaign to establish a feudal fascist America. 

 

But at the core of each novel is the heart of America... the good and redemptive parts that drive his flawed and damaged characters to give us hope for the future...and hope for ourselves.

 

Rick is a consummate storyteller and intriguing characters prompt inventive plot twists and turns that gently force an insightful look at the current political and racial divides that are tearing at our country's fabric. His books are must-reads for anyone who cares about the future of our country and those who feel compelled to make it a better place for the generations to come.

This is absolutely a must read!! After a two year wait sine Mac Murphy, I couldn't put it down! If you want to see where the U.S. could fall from this point, give this novel a read. It really outlines our responsibility as voting citizens to think hard about who's running the country (think Project 2025).

Nellis Gray

THE REDEMPTION SERIES BOOK I

Sapped by rowdy years on the road, rude and cantankerous Nellis Gray has a locked steel gate, a pack of scruffy dogs, Chester the pet pig, and every intention of spending his remaining years working his small farm in seclusion. He shuns social contact, until desperate young sisters draw him out of isolation to craft redemption from ruin for their eccentric family and save the town from a confederacy of Klansmen, sadistic enforcers for a shady political campaign financed by a big-tent preacher with a global parish and secrets to hide.

5.0 out of 5 stars - great read

Rick is a consummate story teller! Interesting characters abound, so many intriguing plot twists and turns, an insightful look at the current political and racial divides that are tearing at our country's fabric. Highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars

Relevant for our political times

This is a timely socio-political story that could come from any rural town. Rick develops the characters, good and bad so the reader can really feel good about those who deserve it and despise those who are really bad. Nellis is a good man with good values that is pulled into a good neighbor situation that expands into much more involvement than his character really would prefer. But because he is good and well-intentioned, he does what is required. Subtle and not-so-subtle cues are incorporated into the reading to show how good Nellis is. I was hooked after chapter one. Read it, you will like it. Then you, like me, will be just waiting for the second of the trilogy to be released.

5.0 out of 5 stars

Great read for everyone

I read this book in about three days. Couldn't wait to see how Stiller resolves issues of a Alt-Right redneck/racist/evangelical conspiracy to not just discourage - but perhaps eliminate - competition in order to win what starts out as just one congressional seat, but morphs into something much larger. Something tells me there's a little bit of Rick Stiller in his primary character, retired 60's rocker, Nellis Gray. Only problem with Stiller's book is now waiting for the next piece of this Redemption Trilogy to fall. This is a great read - especially welcome for those who feel like little blue dots in really red states

THE REDEMPTION SERIES BOOK II

Phantoms from a tortured past draw reclusive landscape artist, Jessie Cotton, out of seclusion to find redemption in leading a worker’s rebellion that shatters the mirage of mindless bliss in Florida’s sunny paradise and expands into a national movement to salvage the middle class from the greed and power of the richest few, who have been plotting to dismantle our government and our democracy for decades.

I strongly recommend this book!  Once again, Mr. Stiller has put his considerable writing skills to work toanalyze and provide insight into the political turmoil we are facing as a country. This fast-paced book is engaging, thoughtful, creative, realistic, as well as irreverent and fun.  

 

I find that about 1/3 of the way through Rick's books,  I get so caught up in the story line and character development that I can't put them down!

 

Author Rick Stiller continues to show us a path forward,  through the engagement of ordinary people who face up to crisis. While being clear that the struggle is ongoing,  Rick's books end on a hopeful note, showing that progress is possible.

Elect Mac Murphy

THE REDEMPTION SERIES BOOK III

Occasionally, the publication of a work of fiction anticipates the polarization and upheaval, protests and violence of a precise moment in history. The underlying narrative behind Stiller’s new novel, Mac Murphy, reveals the essence of the sinister powers driving the conflict between right and left, have’s and have not’s, white society and people of color as a distraction from their campaign to establish a feudal fascist America. 

The Forge

THE REDEMPTION SERIES BOOK IV

Two unlikely candidates vie for the presidency in the final days before the most important election of our time, while troopers from a secret agency detain thousands of opposition organizers, who disappear without a trace. Fugitive leaders of the All People Matter movement launch a desperate crusade to rescue the captives and defend our tattered experiment in democracy under siege.

Dealer

Dealer opens as the Summer of Love flowered in 1967 and the counter-culture revolution erupted across the western world. Long-haired, pot-smoking hippies infested major cities, college campuses, and small towns with raucous music and a social consciousness that exploded into the anti-war movement. Political and social norms were trounced by a generation devoted to sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll.

 

A brash young entrepreneur recognized the potential and built a robust and illicit chain, importing from the Caribbean, South America, the Middle East, and Asia to supply a budding market from coast to coast.

Dealer is not your typical story about a local 60s hippy dippy weed peddler selling his stash from the back of an aging Cadillac. Dealer is about a business. An import business. A marijuana import business that grows from a modest entrepreneurial organization, to a global distribution network that takes you on a journey from the Caribbean, South America, Asia and all points in between.

* * *

Talk about a blast from the past! Stiller’s book took me back to my 20s and brought back images from the ‘60s that got lost in the memory banks. Whether or not you participated in the music, drugs, or sex of that decade, Dealer guides you through many of the “adventures” that we shared as Hippies. This book is probably as good a history lesson as it is a highly entertaining novel. You should make a point of reading Stiller’s Dealer for the story, the authenticity, and the excellent writing.
