Book excerpt: Description After Neil Kenneth Bull, a retired Marine sniper, is sworn in as president of the United States, he begins a new life in the White House with his wife and three children. Three months later, he signs a bill that bans the relatives of any foreign terrorists from entering the United States. Not everyone is happy with the bill, including Hammed Bohan, an asylum alien and relative of former terrorist Bin Laden, who was expecting his family to join him in Florida. Soon after, Hammed is compelled to join a group of terrorists. A week before Independence Day, the terrorist group takes a high school hostage in Washington, DC, and one of the president’s daughters is among the hostages. Neil Bull is an extraordinary former Marine sniper who only trusts three things: his rifle, his Bible, and himself. A note from the author: I’m confident you’re going to enjoy The Blue Hostage. Here are some reasons why: --The Blue Hostage is written in a style called Cataphrase. --The scenes start and end with action. --The Correspondents’ Dinner scene is hilarious. --The hostage scenes will put you on the edge of your seat. --This story of the most powerful man in the world rescuing his daughter from the hands of a ruthless terrorist will thrill you. --Cataphrase is unique. About Cataphrase: Think of Cataphrase as a movie script designed to look like a book. We use the word “movie” to describe a Cataphrase book because the genre focuses on writing movies alone. Like one Cataphrase reader said, “When a good novel loses all its unnecessary weight, it becomes a Cataphrase.” The concept of writing a book that gives a reader the experience of watching a movie is what gave birth to Cataphrase. Simplified, Cataphrase is a book that summarizes what happens in a movie without sacrificing the interesting parts. Cataphrase doesn’t use a table of contents or chapters; instead, the pages are Cataphrased into scenes. A Cataphrase book does not exceed 200 pages. The reason is because most book readers believe a book that is written to entertain people shouldn’t exceed 250 pages, as, with the schedule of most people today, it could take up to a month or more to finish reading it. And let's say you have ten favorite authors and you've bought all their new books, and each is 300 pages or more. Imagine how long it will take you to read all the books. I’m not saying it’s impossible to read ten 300-page books in a month, but let’s be realistic. Unless you are unemployed, how many people have the time to read ten books in a month? However, the truth is, if a book is interesting, regardless of the size, we can always find time to read it. Often, when we are on a bus, train, or plane or just waiting for an oil change, we read one or two pages of a newspaper or that big novel we’ve been carrying about for a month. Have you ever heard someone say, “Anytime I need to fall asleep, I’ll pick up a Bible and start reading”? A book shouldn’t be a sleeping pill. This is why Cataphrase is designed to entertain readers and not help them fall asleep. The logic of Cataphrase is similar to that of a newspaper. The first thing that attracts most people to a newspaper is the headline and the fact that the news is short yet interesting. This logic is what Cataphrase intends to deliver. REVIEWS “Three words to describe The Blue Hostage: Action, humor and patriotic." —ACP reader. EDITOR’S COMMENT “This is exactly the kind of story that the Cataphrase style seems meant for--big action, larger-than-life characters, and thrilling sequences. Often, the story just rips down the page--and I can see readers consuming it very quickly, just as they would a movie.”
