Reviews
"A sweeping, intense novel of extremism, fear and consequences."--Publishers Weekly on AMERICA LIBRE
"In such explosive times as ours, it is rare to discover a novel that captures fanaticism in all its extremes and tells a story as thrilling and vibrant as Raul Ramos y Sanchez's AMERICA LIBRE. Future and history collide in a cautionary tale of a new Civil War on American soil. A must-read for all, no matter where you draw your line in the sand."--James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Oracle on AMERICA LIBRE
"Provocative!"--USA Today on AMERICA LIBRE
"Raul Ramos y Sanchez breaks new ground with America Libre. This debut novel is fast-paced and powerfully written-a story that not only entertains but challenges readers to examine their beliefs. Definitely an author to watch. "--Reuben Martínez, founder, Librería Martínez Books & Art Gallery on AMERICA LIBRE
"With House Divided, Ramos continues to shape the immigration narrative, while simultaneously holding it down for other authors who are part of fiction's Latino Renaissance...Just as he did in America Libre, Ramos infuses House Divided with an unwavering voice - one well informed by the fear that the immigration reform smack downs in this country have engendered."--Examiner.com
