Byers' one-of-a-kind work can be purchased for just $6.99 each and are easily auto-delivered wirelessly, diminishing the extra shipping and handling charges of traditional paperback and hardcover books.

"I want to teach how to imagine and I hope, through my teachings and novels, the public will be able to do so. Hopefully, I will reach even more people with the Kindle eBook launch on Amazon, making my books easier attain," said Stephen P. Byers.

-Writer's Digest Books, Previously Unpublished Annual Contest. Judges' report2000: Honorable Mention, 80 out of 100 points.
"Stephen Byers' Bent Coin is his most engaging and compelling story yet, and showcases his genius for authentic characters, swift dialogue, action, vivid scenes, drama, believable settings, and, creative and compelling flashbacks; all seamlessly woven into a worthy, gripping, somewhat turbulent tale; a saga that expertly and accurately spans generations and social castes, sweeping and suspenseful in its effective portrayal of the often times complicated, messy and dangerous sides of love and money."
