Review: An interesting premise in serious need of an editor -- but still giving DHS nightmares

To say I only gave this 3 stars doesn't mean I didn't like it.  TJ Reeder's idea that there will be Americans willing to fight back against rogue cops and traitorous politicians is fairly unique and I enjoy his first-person story telling style.  But this book has just so many grammar, spelling and editing mistakes that should never have gone forward without some more polish, even for a "folksy" writer.The story continues forward from the first book, and we find love and co-conspirators in a very neat package with some decent family values reinforcement.  But it's essentially the same as the first book:  crooked cops and political hacks go too far in their abuse of citizens and somebody decides for some well-justified vigilante justice.  OK...a fun, quick read disrupted only by the lack of using spell/grammar check carefully before publishing.  Certainly, anybody publishing stuff like this is going to give DHS a lot to worry about.  If the DC sniper could shut down the Capital for a month, then even a couple of dedicated "patriots" could give a lot of Libs and jackboots a nightmare.  I guess I'm just a little too finicky about writing not to worry about what there/their/they're confusion will come next.I'm not sure I'll buy the 3rd book when it comes out.  I got the first for a dollar, and that was a fair exchange.  At $2.99 for the second installment, I'm right at the balance for wanting to spend more for another slap-dash e-book.  If it gets below $2, probably.  Much more...then I'm unlikely to continue. And if the story doesn't have some decent evolution from there, buying a fourth volume will be really unlikely as I get the idea about "don't tread on me."
