Unintended Consequences UPDATE

There are copies of it floating around online that you can read.

Thanks, I'll look for one. You'd think at that market rate a publisher would be falling all over himself to get it back in print.
 
I have a first edition in excellent shape. Where in the world is this $437 coming from? Does this refer to autographed copies?

Seems like used copies go for at least $100 on Google Shopping (even at Goodwill!!!). @tanstaafl72555, you mind hooking me up with that PDF?
 
Is there an audio book version of this anywhere?
 
The PDF I clicked on above was only 749 pages. Just hit print. :p
I thought it was 479. Still, it is a LONG book and it is VERY slow at first. Actually, it's slow for about the first half.

It is expected that in response to onerous gun restrictions that the People's resistance will be limited to hiding and non compliance with simultaneous efforts to litigate with the expectation that this will result in at least partial success. At the same time, the govt. agents will try to off certain resistance elements, e.g. the bigger ones with NFA records, one by one. The book does exemplify the point that this form of resistance is not sufficient and that going on the offensive will be required.
 
I found one on Amazon about 2 months ago, 2nd edition shipped for $38.
Just look around and you'll find one.
I also downloaded the pdf version, I just like reading a book I hold in my hands, plus having it on the shelve.

It is not the publishers, from what I hear. The author was "gently suggested" that he not put it back in print, the way I hear it.

It might come back..... things have changed.
 
I have the PDF, there's just something about holding real paper in my hand I like.
I will LEND (read that L-E-N-D) you my copy, if you sign away the rigthts to your entire life savings if you don't return it! J/K. I will LEND it to long time trustworthy CFF folk like yourself. Just promise to get it back to me, and pay shipping both ways.
 
While trying to ascertain the value of my book I learned that Ross is working on a sequel. He's some hundred pages into it and I'll probably be gone when he finishes it.

It's been rumored for YEARS. Almost immediately after the first book was published. I honestly don't think he could do it again.
 
Could someone give us illiterate rednecks the Cliff Notes synopsis of this book?

Government does a Virginia, gets grabby and Communistic, people object as the Constitution provides for up to and including shooting down a pols chopper with a 20mm. It's been a while since I read it. Might have to give it another read.

Basically a rich guy who still has a lot of NFA and pre NFA weaponry that he failed to register back when he was a kid and bought gets raided by the ATF but gets the jump on the agents and starts retaliating. With the help of some friends, they target certain politicians for execution by unique methods, while simultaneously broadcasting information about the gun grab under way and utilizes doxxing to put the names and addresses of various government agents and politicians out on the internet. Patriotic people, using this information decide to do their part and start targeting these agents. Government is quickly shut down and brought to its knees through fear (of getting killed) paralysis. In combination (if I recall correctly and am not conflating this with a Bracken book) one patriot used some explosives to take out the bridges into / out of Washington which further crippled the ability of Uncle to function. Eventually the President was forced to reach an agreement of full immunity / pardon, etc for everyone responsible if the main character is willing to call for an end to the hostilities.

Basically, it is at least somewhat realistic possibility for how The People could effectively respond to an out of control tyrannical government in a leaderless manner and the govt. sorts apparently doesn't 't like the idea being published if the author was asked to take the book out of print.
 
Oh, i read this not to long ago. There was a thread here with the free pdf download.

Good read in my mind.

That's supposed to be 5x5. I had his email address about 25 years ago and he said he was going to do a sequel. Alas... I'm told he's about 100 pages into the new one.
