Attic Whispers from The Blue Mountains [April 2023 Edition]

I am pleased to tell you that since its recent release, the book has become a #1 Bestseller and #1 Hot New Release on Amazon US and Amazon Australia in six categories. Needless to say, this outstanding result in such a short time, was in no small way due to the valuable support of dedicated readers like yourself, and would certainly not have been possible without it!

Without question, the book launch has surpassed all expectations, largely due to the wonderful participation and support of my Book Launch Team. I am very fortunate to have dedicated team members scattered around the world from Austria to Argentina, who took to social media with great enthusiasm to ‘spread the word’ about the new book. This splendid effort resulted in unprecedented sales which in turn propelled the book to number one in the Amazon Hot New Releases and Best Sellers categories.

In addition, I would like to mention another important contribution you have made to the successful release of the book: the many wonderful reviews! (More than 360 five-star reviews on various platforms so far!) Needless to say, I read every one of them, as I get a lot of valuable feedback from the way the book is received, and how the storylines resonate with readers. And of course, there is no better recommendation a new book can hope for than a favourable, well-crafted review from dedicated readers like you. 

Here’s one example of a 5 star review posted on the very day the book was released:

“Jack Rogan, my favorite lovable larrikin, is following those breadcrumbs of destiny once again which launch him on a quest to locate a long lost religious relic rumored to hold great power. This quest will take Jack down a perilous path that proves incredibly dangerous not only to himself but to everyone he cares about. As it turns out, Jack is not the only one searching for this relic. The stakes could not be higher as Jack finds himself tangled in the strings of a most malevolent puppet master who harbors no qualms about killing anyone standing in his way – when Jack tries to thwart his adversary’s manipulations, people die. What follows is a pulse-pounding adventure that will consume your every thought until you reach the conclusion of this epic adventure.

In my opinion, Gabriel Farago has no trouble holding his ground among such literary luminaries as Dan Brown, Robert Ludlum, James Rollins, or David Baldacci. He offers exquisite multi-layered plots rife with accounts of actual historical events and personalities deftly blended into his stories so seamlessly that it is hard to distinguish the fact from the fiction. I cannot imagine the staggering amount of research that must be involved to weave such intricate and absorbing tales.  

I revel in the superlative descriptions of exotic locales brimming with exquisite detail that convinces you that you are right there in the thick of the action with Jack and his friends experiencing the bitter cold of Russia’s bone-chilling air, choking on the acrid smoke of bombs as they decimate buildings in war-torn Ukraine, retching at the fetid stench of over-crowded shelters, or, on a more pleasant note, happily savoring the enticing aromas of culinary delicacies you could only hope to someday sample. This author is, in my mind, a consummate storyteller that never fails to ensnare my imagination and hold my full attention from the first page to the last. Gabriel Farago – your blood’s worth bottling.

I was provided with an advance copy of this book, for which I thank the author, but I also chose to purchase a final copy because it is that good. Also, I am sharing my honest and unbiased opinion on a completely voluntary basis.”  ~ Amazon Review

Reviews are the true reflection of how a writers are viewed and their work resonates with their readership and the market generally. Ultimately, there’s no place to hide! And that’s fair, because every writer stands, or falls, is celebrated, or ignored, succeeds, or fails, by one thing alone: the quality of the work they produce.
Therefore, your contribution, my friends, is hugely important when it comes to the success of a book. Releasing a book is a team effort, and all of you, as valued members of my inner circle of readers, have not only contributed to the success of the book, but are part of it!

So, once again, a big “Thank You!” to you all.
