“I enjoyed the endearing and not so endearing characters as they lived their unusual and exciting lives. There was lots of natural sounding dialog that moved the plot along. The plot was intricate with many twists and turns—and some surprises. The workings of how telephone poles are installed added an extra dimension to the novel as did the military scenes. Those Whom the Gods Love had plenty of romantic interludes, surprises and excitement. The author is certainly a student of human nature. His insight into how and why people act as they do was accurately displayed in his novel. I thought the cover was extremely eye-catching and should make readers want to see what is inside.” Writers Digest- December 2005

Mr. Alston comes by the newspaper I work for regularly. I was given a copy of "Last Chance Bar & Grill" by my editor, Shannon White. I sat down and read the book from cover to cover in about 45 minutes. I am typically not a religious person. I have never read much of the Bible. I wanted to let Mr. Alston know that despite all this, I enjoyed this book very much. "This is the book for all time; for anyone to read so that they may better understand their role in the salvation of the world."
