"I read and reread White King and the Doctor and White King Rising. Through intrigue and superb writing Lee Kessler has given us an insightful portrayal of how subversive tactics, being strategically played, could conquer our country from within. Invisible forces may be at work to undermine our freedoms, our standards, and our strengths as a nation. Kessler�s storytelling leaves you wondering if any of it is fiction. Both books are suspenseful and full of challenges to our existing paradigms. You have to read them to be amongst those who are aware and alert. I just may read them again."

"I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the novels you wrote 'educating' Americans about Al Qaeda and 9/11. I read White King and the Doctor many years ago and have looked at my world differently because of your book. I recently downloaded White King to my Kindle and reread it. I believe I absorbed more the second time reading. I am currently reading, for the first time, White King Rising, and once again, have my senses elevated. Your work is appreciated. "

"I couldn't put White King and the Doctor down. I count it as one of the top 10 books I have read in its genre (I am an avid reader, so this is out of many hundreds of books). Excellent Excellent Excellent"

January 6. Oh, the Epiphany! You�ll have one, when you read White King and the Doctor. It is supposedly fiction, but oh, so believable! What an important bookful of insights. Lee has exposed some keys to unlock the mysteries that have changed our lives. Brilliant!

"LEE KESSLER's book 'WHITE KING AND THE DOCTOR' opened my eyes on what is going on on this planet. I clearly see now that nothing is just occurring by chance. No, these happenings are man-made --- with very specific INTENTIONS in mind. I feel it is of utmost importance that many people are availing themselves of those data and inside. Our lives will be less confusing and threatening. Actually, you'll free yourself from fears AND start planning your future again!!! How valuable is that? By-the-way, the book reads easily. It's a page turner. M.G. AVDC "

 "I read the first book: 'The White King and the Doctor'. It is masterful writing. Also, it is an amazing insight into what is really going on in our world. When I read it, I thought it would make a fantastic movie!

Toby Cantine,

"Lee, I am excited that your novels may become screenplays. They are perfect and will be a tremendous success. It strikes right at the root of the problem and is probably the real world if the truth be known. I loved the books, couldn't stop reading. They are addictive, and the plot is what the public will love as a movie series. It is perfect timing and I know a movie will be as much of a hit as the books are."

L D Sledge,

Lee, you are an inspiration. A woman with a warm heart, captivating stories to share, and the desire to help others beyond their own thinking. Your book is indeed an eye opener. I strongly believe a movie would reach double the amount of your vision you have for it. Thank you for displaying determination to the fullest! God Bless you always!

"Tom Clancy, Joel Rosenberg, and now Lee Kessler have demonstrated they are all way out in front in the chess game against terrorism. White King and the Doctor ought to be required reading for anyone in a position to make security decisions for their country as it relates to being one step ahead of the terrorists. Is it really fiction? What a great read and an eye opener to potentially what we might be up against in the war on terror!"

"This is one book I would absolutely love see become a major motion picture. It is moving and suspenseful. "

 "Love your book white King and the Doctor"

Frank Camuso,

"Really enjoyed the story. I got sooo engrossed in it because it makes one see that there is Fifth Column eating us from inside out. Everywhere I look now I see the evidence that before I was blind to that our atitudes and opinions are being covertly shaped by outside forces. Scary, because I am reading about what, at this very time,is happening to me.Lee Kessler really got inside of Al Qaida's mastermind and figured out his MasterPlan for us in the US. "

Jonathan Bromboz D.D.S.,

"If you haven't picked up either of her first two books it's a MUST! Ms Kessler puts a different spin on global terrorism and actually gets into the head of a major terrorist. I understand a third book is in the making. It would be great to see these books played out on celluloid."

Susan Cox,

Apache Junction, AZ


"In reading this book, I was able to take a step back from what I see and hear about in the world every day--the micro view through from news. This story gave me the macro vision--like I was outside the planet looking at all the social situations and could tie them together. I get it now. What I see now fits into this plan. Brilliant work. Can't wait for the next one."

Marcy Sanders,

"This book was very special. I remember the chill along my spine at one point when I realized that what Lee had written was true and that we need to take a new view of what is happening globally. She has written a book that should be read by all Americans. Charlene Thorburn, DC

"I can hardly say enough about this book---what an important eye opener. Something everyone should read and be aware of. I give this book to friends more than almost any other book. "

"White King and the Doctor is intriguing and got me thinking more about the events leading up to and following the attacks of September 11. I do not have much interest in history, but I think I learned more from this book than in all my 24 years. I attribute that to Lee Kessler's wonderful ability to keep the reader engaged and guessing what is fact and what is fiction. More people need to read this book, especially those in my generation."

Emily Neumann,

Milwaukee, WI


"I read political thrillers all the time. I enjoy Vince Flynn and Brad Thor. But I have to say these two books opened my eyes to what is covertly being done to us. Kessler shows us how those who want to bring us down can do so by using our values and virtues. For instance since we don't want to discriminate or be racist those who want to bring us down will say that any attempt to weed out the terrorists is being racist. How the media can be used to bring us at each others throats. Instead of looking for the real enemy we begin attacking each other. This book is entertaining, informative and I could not put it down. I didn't want it to end. And the solution at the end of White King Rising is a plausible solution! Read it and learn. What's next Ms Kessler??? "

Vicki Bromboz,

Florida


"The events of 9/11 and subsequent terrorist occurences had left me scared and worried about the future of America and mankind. I had the opportunity to read this novel and surprisingly while being entertained by an intelligently written story, I found I now undestood what was really going on here in America and around the world! The characters are real and it was hard to put down until I finished it! A definite good read and exciting! Great intrigue."

Sharon Johnson,

"Lee Kessler is a gifted writer,with incredible insight into our political snd intelligence landscape. Once i started reading, i could not put the book down. Awesome book! I highly recommend it. Buy it, read it, and tell others about it."

"Lee, I have to say you are one of the few who can keep me reading a lengthy novel, as I am not much of a fictional story reader (love it on TV/big screen). But I must say your two books kept my interest as it mixed truth and fiction (or was it) in a very suspenseful way. I couldn't put the books down once I started them and I am looking forward to the next one. They have made great gifts for my two children who also can't wait to see all this unveiled on the big screen one day. Sure would make interesting sequels and boy, does it wake people up to reality. Good luck with all your future endeavors."

"I have enjoyed Lee Kessler's books, especially White King and the Doctor. She is a clever writer. her books are very thought provoking and entertaining. Also, very timely with what is going on in our world today "

Tut Ingram,

"'White King & The Doctor' was an amazing read. It described events in real time that confirmed what I have suspected, & other things I've read about a Fifth Column. It was fascinating. The chess game is real & WE are on the board, as we see events unfolding in the Middle East today. It would make an incredible movie that might just help wake up this country to what is really happening. I am a voracious reader & this was one of the best books I have ever read."

Pauline Scott,

"I read White King and the Doctor in August 2008 in concert with the summer Olympics on television. The combination focused my fears on the safety of our international community. The book was so thought provoking - was it fact or fiction?! It has passed my litmus test for a great book in that it still haunts me every day. I've forgotten most books I've read. But not this one!"

Phyllis Feldman,

"If you didn't already understand that global terrorism has never been about religion, then this novel and its predecessor will make sure that you do. These books are about the subtle ways in which power and wealth can be manipulated to create a populace so "lazy" that it sits and waits for the "executioner." We can take it all back, we can turn it around, but we must take our heads out of the sand. These two novels are the first step in understanding what must happen in this century. And turning them into first rate films will insure that, while being royally entertained, an even larger number of people, globally, will come to understand that it is up to them. Can't wait to read the third book!"

Marti Baer,

"Imagine if the world of Harry Potter, the places and scenes of Harry Potter were the 'real world' we lived in. Imagine how diabolical the doctor would be in this setting, and imagine how endearing the characters would be who were on the right side of freedom. The story is so very old, and yet so very dear to us all. Now, take that story and instead of swords and wizardry, how about the powerful weapons of mind control and public relations, literally two edges of the same sword -- used for very black or very white ends. Now you have the elements of White King Rising. Will there be a third book to continue the saga? Could be, could be . . . the story has certainly not played out fully. I, for one, will be ready for it. Ms. Kessler is a most enjoyable read."

Cat Tebar,

"Just the other day a man murdered an unsuspecting passenger on the subway in cold blood. He was off his anti-depressant medication. Lee is right on target. Her political insights and writing ability are superb. I loved it!"

Miriam Schumacher,

Awesome! Lee Kessler did it again. A fantastic sequel to her first book. I am truly amazed at her insight and creative abiliy to weave such a believeable story and tie it so closely to actual current events. She exposes you to the thought process of the terrorists and their attempts to destroy our country from within. What's next?

"I think what Lee has hit upon is a huge wake-up call for America. How many more will we get before its too late? Thanks Lee, keep up the good work. I'm looking forward to at least one movie out of this."

Ruth Ann McLaury,

Eureka, MT


"Ordinarily one does not read a novel to get perceptive insights into current affairs, but to my amazement, I found myself fascinated by the author's point of view regarding the mind control and manipulation that may have been at play in the past several years in our nation and abroad - by terrorists - and right under our noses! It has certainly caused me to do a double-take at the influence of pharmaceuticals and drugs in general. The author's main characters are likeable, intelligent, and grounded in unshakable strength of character. By contrast, her antagonists are evil incarnate, creating a terrifying scenario that has you on the edge. Ms. Kessler's books have jarred me from complacency, and I have gotten involved and informed about what is going on politically and nationally. A must-read. I couldn't set it down. "

"As time moves on, we witness the conflicts in society and know that something is terribly wrong. White King Rising gives us a look at what is causing this downturn. It is shocking and such a surprise that most people would not accept it if told directly. Through this page-turner of a brilliant story, we discover it. Lee, you have made a great contribution to Americans and to good-intentioned people everywhere."

Marcy Sanders,

"I believe in Lee Kessler's message so much that I wrote about her books on our mental health related blog. http://tra.kz/LEE KESSLER Lee lives near our home in northwestern Montana and we were privileged to hear her presentation in person."

Your book is magnificent!!  It gives me hope. This book presents a vision of what could very easily happen if eyes are opened to the possibility of re-educating America's youth--the generation capable of carrying the torch of freedom forward into the future. Read White King Rising and find out for yourself.

"'White King Rising' needs to be on a required reading list for all young people (and their parents) in this country. Lee has created a work of fiction which could easily become fact. I recommend reading the first book in the series - 'White King and the Doctor' - as well. It took me four days to read them both; it was a can't-put-it-down experience."

Sue Eller,

"Great book and very scary. A real awakening to what is going on in our world. Thanks Lee, I look forward to getting into the next one. "

"One of the most exciting suspense novels I've ever read and the sequel being even better"

"This is just the type of story I enjoy most - it's one of those 'fiction is as strange as truth' in which I can go right along with the author and see what she sees. Great read!"

"If you have ever wondered how or why some things are the way they are - you need to read White King and the Doctor. It is a powerful and exciting novel that brings the reader to a new level of understanding about the world we live in, and the War on Terror."

Eileen Batson,

"I just finished the last page and literally ran to the computer to tell you that this is by far one of the absolute best books I have ever read.  As I was reading the reviews before I got started on the book, each one I read was so eloquently written. I couldn't help wishing I had the ability to put into words how profoundly this book affected me.  And I also don't have any of the very highly impresssive titles the other reviewers have.  But, I am going to write my own review...............................................HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This is a fantastic read. It also shows that "we" need to look behind the news & pay attention to reality, not flighty rumors or emails "

Joan Fullmore,

"I found this book to be frightingly realistic! Even though it was written as fiction, any of the events in the story may not be far from the actual truth. It was and eye opener for me and it forces the reader to re-think the events in our world today! The implications are chilling! "

Deborah Scalzo,

"I thoroughly enjoyed reading both of your books and was amazed that several of the things you mentioned in your books actually came true. Now, every time OBL unveils a new video, I wonder if it is current or several years old as you proposed in your book. In my estimation, your books would make a GREAT movie. Keep up the great work."
