| | Description | What can one man do when he finds himself up against the most dangerous men in America? His only weapons are intellectual: a keen analytical mind and rational morality. His opponents have vast resources of money and power--and no moral limitations on their use.
The tale begins with a series of puzzling events. Cars are being moved mysteriously at night without anyone knowing who moves them or why, and food is disappearing. One man discovers what causes these strange happenings, but he doesn't know the full story. When he finally does, he learns that his own life is in danger--and so is the future of the nation! His solution for saving the United States will be of interest to everyone concerned about the current direction of this country. | |

Well Done! Jun 29, 2009
By Michael J. Mcfadden
Ever wonder where authors like Michael Crichton and Stephen King get their ideas? Well, Edmund Contoski's "The Trojan Project" could well have been the inspiration for both Crichton's "State of Fear" and King's "The Cell."
Contoski builds his book around a tale of an unscrupulous politician allying with a techno-wizard who develops a way to manipulate mass-populations through computer-generated phone network frequencies. With this as his framework he then lays out a strong political vision of how America's principles have been corrupted by politicians and through the courts and presents a strong argument for making changes to return us to the principles laid down by the Founding Fathers.
While the political discussion is far more dominant than in Crichton's "State of Fear," Contoski avoids the trap that Ayn Rand fell into in Atlas Shrugged. Rather than going for hundreds of pages of preachy monologue, Ed arranges his main political presentation as a lively dialogue between the main antagonist and protagonist and keeps it to a size that most readers will find quite digestible.
The background "science-fiction" aspect of the book isn't strong enough to carry it into mainstream science fiction literature, but it's strong enough to provide a human connection that elevates the book beyond the standard political philosophy genre and overall it succeeds wonderfully in presenting some fairly complex ideas in a way that makes for a very comfortable reading.
The Trojan Project provides an excellent introduction to a well-articulated Conservative/Libertarian philosophy presented in a clear and enjoyable format that should serve to disturb many Americans who have little to no idea how deeply our fundamental American principles of government have been corrupted over the years.

The Trojan Project is a technological thriller/fantasy set squarely in the middle of today's political climate. This work can be classified as both fiction and non-fiction. Taking current events & realities in our political infrastructure, Contoski, has woven a masterful tale of technological horror. We watch as a computer virus spreads affecting and infiltrating the entire United States telephone system. Ed has a penned a novel that will keep you in uncertain anticipation with each turn of the page. Finishing up with an uncommon, and totally unanticipated ending your attention is held until the very last period- and beyond.
