Sobre IBD

’An Eclectic Reader’ is a mixed bag, a collection of action-adventure short stories and a few whimsical musings. The characters you will meet within these pages come from a multitude of varying backgrounds and bring with them tales that will inform, entertain and amuse. Within these pages you will meet an Air Force officer who seeks to hijack an airliner and a runaway groom who finds his most important answers while in a jail cell in Prescott, Arkansas. You will discover what happened to Clark Kent and explore the final extrapolation of the socialist dream in the tale, Sunset Village. Whether it is young love as in Billy and the Nester or a try at rekindling an old romance as in Rent With Option, you will find something within these pages to grab your interest and transport you, for a time, to a different reality. Settle into an easy chair and prepare to be entertained.
