Summary: I LOVED DIAMOND OF GREED!!!
Comment: Known by his former business associates as "The Barter King Of Radio", Bill Kennedy has written a morality tale which to this reader recalls such celluloid classics as The Natural, Field Of Dreams, Heavan Can Wait, and It's A Wonderful Life.
An enchanting mix of fantasy, slightly idealized reality, and America's favorite pastime, Diamond Of Greed is the "Feel Good Hit" of the new millenium! I urge all good Americans to read it today!

Summary: For Love Or Money...
Comment: You do not have to know a thing about baseball to enjoy this book. It is the kind of novel that made me look forward to getting to bed just just so I could have my reading time and find out what happens next. If the current big business aspects of our national sports concerns you or if you just want to read a good book - then read this one. I'm on Amazon now just to order copies for friends! P.S. I consider myself a pretty critical reader.

Summary: From a NJ fan of baseball and angels...
Comment: This is a really interesting idea about how to tell a story that makes a point about how greed has become so dominant in sports and in all of society. The story is set a few years in the future, and it's about how a former baseball player is sent from Heaven back to Earth with special powers that allow him to be the best hitter in history. He uses his ability to win over fans, especially when they find out he has insisted on a long-term contract that pays him comfortably ($500,000 a year) but keeps him from cashing in for the millions that lesser players are earning. Naturally, there are people who don't like his anti-greed stand, and they make life, or rather, the after-life, difficult for him. The author is a former advertising guy who took up writing in retirement as a hobby, and it's obvious that this was a labor of love for him.
