By and large, life here on Jupiter is pretty entertaining.

This might not seem your cup of chai. But Brecher’s writing is brisk, his wit savage. He’s the freshest writer on current events since P. J. O’Rourke sold his soul to the Dark Side. Fair warning: like O’Rourke he uses what we might call fairly strong language. Then again, sometimes the easily offended need to be.

And soon, you won’t have to spend hours clicking from column to column in the eXile archives to get your Brecher fix. As of June 1^st, 2008, you can enjoy reading some of his greatest hits between the covers of The War Nerd, the book.

If you pre-order you can get a 5% discount off Amazon’s already marked-down price of $10.85. And of course, if you pre-order or buy the book through this site, you’re helping to support me. And of course my wonderful animal family, including Emma (note the subtle yet entirely gratuitous way I worked in the site’s real draw!)

If you want some of the best insight on the current disaster – and the various whirlwinds so assiduously being sown today – all wrapped up in a damned and damnably entertaining read,you can hardly do better than the self-proclaimed fat boy from Fresno. I just ordered mine!
