Every author thinks that their book is good, and many IAG author members have devoted readers who agree with them. The high quality and literary excellence of these books by IAG members has been recognized by awards bestowed by various organizations dedicated to the proposition that indy books ... without the support and big bucks and heavy pressure applied by the Literary Industrial Complex ... are actually pretty darned good.

No, better than good ... absolutely bloody fantastic.   Enjoy!
