Praise
for David LaBounty:
"The
Perfect Revolution shines brightest in its details—a picture of suburban
totalitarianism so complete you can smell the rotting garbage on the front
lawn of the American dream... LaBounty brings to speculative fiction a well-needed
dose of humanism. After a decade of men in long black trench coats saying
things like ‘whoa’ and shooting guns you only see in movies, it's
nice to see characters with real flaws, real families, and real fears."
—Mark R. Brand, Red Ivy Afternoon
"LaBounty's
writing has that rare touch of irony and reality within a speculative fiction
world. His gift lies in his human touch as he writes about our foibles and
idiosyncrasies."
—Becci Noblit Goodall, Chaise

David LaBounty
author of The Perfect Revolution
"LaBounty
has a knack for taking his readers inside the heads of his characters, where
the concepts of Good and Evil fade unsettlingly to the background, replaced
by Fear and Desire. That's not always a pleasant place to be, but it is always
fascinating."
—Russell Lutz, Iota Cycle
Chris Fairbanks
is a lonely young man who joins the Navy in search of travel, adventure, and
women—but mostly to escape his lower middle-class existence, his loveless
family, and to find some meaning in his otherwise meaningless life. The Navy
sends Chris to a small communications base in Scotland, where he is befriended
by a disillusioned Catholic chaplain, Father Alexander Crowley. Crowley joined
the Navy for his own sinister reasons—including his desire to incite
a race war that will consume the world.
Blinded
by his search for friendship and acceptance, Chris reluctantly finds himself
drawn into Crowley's white supremacist group and his alcohol-fueled plans
for genocide. After realizing the depths of Crowley's madness and struggling
with his own complicity in this reign of terror, Chris appeals to his chain
of command. Met with indifference and disbelief, he takes matters into his
own hands, leading The Trinity to an apocalyptic and fiery end.
Set against
the turbulent backdrop of the Cold War and the pastoral beauty of eastern
Scotland, The Trinity is a contemplative exploration of the complexity
of human evil.
