Publisher's summary

Set in today's political climate, Derrick learns political strength is needed to ensure the sustainability of his civic-minded conglomerate, and prevent the blockage of future projects that threatens to supplant the business powers that be. In the fight for political power, his mother spearheads the grass-roots voting initiative to change the leadership in Congress.

Erich Hornsby, the neo-Nazi chairman of the business powers, plots Derrick's murder and manipulates the voters to elect his puppet, John Donaldson, president. In full control of the White House, Hornsby attempts to raise the Fourth Reich.

This realistic tale of disproportionate wealth and political tribalism, encompasses drama, romance, spirituality, and philosophy. When you look into the mirrors of life, what will you learn about yourself? What will you learn about your life?

An outstanding story! 👏

I've enjoyed many stories about real life, but Neal Owen's story, Mirrors of Life (book 1 & 2) really stood out among so many of the others. The characters and their struggles, along with good fortune, captivated me from beginning to the end. The stories will take you through a journey of many emotions as the brilliant narrator, Charles Gray, brings everything to life. I highly recommend both books to all lovers of fantastic writing! BRAVO 👏 👏 👏

Insightful and Chilling

This political thriller isn't for everyone because some of the content will offend some who try to be honest with their reviews, and unfortunately because of human nature, a star or two will be taken away. For example, it's said of the fictional president whose name is John Donaldson, that if you vote for him, you are either a racist of a fool. That comment from a fictional character will offend some reviewers who are supportive of the current president because they believe John Donaldson is president Trump. For them to believe that, things said and done by the fictional character have played out in real time.

If you are opened-minded and believe in social justice, this cross-genre novel is insightful and chilling. The printed version is deserving of 5 stars. The narration by Broadway Performer, Charles Gray, is nothing less than 5 stars.

Such high hopes

As a representative of AudioBookReviewer.com here is a review on The Fight for Political Power written by Neal Owen. After reading the summary of this book I was excited. Unfortunately aside from the relationship between the protagonist and his mother nothing felt natural or creative. It felt like the author was pandering to what he thought his audience would want and not focusing on moving the story along. Between getting bogged down in unnecessary details, excessive amounts of Bible quotes and moments of bland dialogue, this story failed to maintain a cohesive direction. 

The setting and background fell flat for me as well. This book series isn't set in today's political climate like it claims, it is an exact copy of today's political climate. The only differences being some name changes and a few but fair liberties taken for the antagonists. This was more of a "ripped from the headlines" law and order style of world building making it feel like little to no effort was taken. 

Charles Gray as a narrator is the saving grace of this read. Charles Gray delivered a great performance. Pacing and character emotions were well portrayed. 

Editing, quality, and production were on par with most books I have listened to.  It was clear, no issue with sound or quality.
