Description
A New Novel with a Mission
Reefenue is a novel with surprising and reasonable conclusions about marijuana in our society through imagining what it would be like to have it as a mainstream, legal commodity instead of a very limited or forbidden product in the hands of the mafia, where its dangers in this book and in real life are not chemical but rather those of distribution in the hands of powerful thugs for whom murder is a mere inconvenience for those who interfere with material profits.
The characters are drawn with a realism that makes their values, humor, shortcomings, and even breathing part of the reader's journey through the book's 370 pages. Each persona is plausible down to his or her speech patterns, personal idioms and motives right down to the romance between Morty and Hank (Henrietta). The villainous Maestro conveys a picture of evil that makes any bad guys from Ian Fleming look like Mr. Rogers.
The conflict at times becomes a wee bit grinding for readers who want simply "to get on with it", but Mr. Harrington is not what I would call a "terse" writer with a sense of verbal economy. His scenarios paint characters and their predicaments in sensory ways with elaborate detail and plausible, extensive dialogue.
The principal message from the book is that marijuana should not be something restricted by government interference. I think of prohibition of alcohol during the 1920's and early 1930's and am convinced that many similar horrors of crime from that era could be diminished or eliminated by making pot as legal as cigarettes.
Mr. Harrington is a skilled writer with a mission, one that he renders quite convincingly in his novel.
John Bolinger
Legal Weed
Laws have changed.
In many parts of the country it isn't a crime to smoke a joint.
Millions and millions of dollars are being made through the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Many more millions of dollars are being made through legal medicinal marijuana.
There has to be a system for the taxes accrued from all of this profit on legal weed to be
geared toward the benefit of all of our society.
Reefenue: Cannabis and the Cash
presents a means to that end through...
...Happenstance
The abduction of a young, brilliant mechanical engineer who happened to be a pot-head,
in his pursuit of the finest reefer in the world, leads to an adventure with potentially dire consequences.
An unlikely crew assembles in an effort to thwart a diabolical, sinister, murderous criminal mastermind
in his scheme to take political and financial control over the booming new marijuana legalization.
The Triangle Thinkers have other things in mind.
