Loyalty: An Object Lesson

About this ebook
Feather your own nest at another's expense. Disregard the Golden Rule at your peril. All of life is a morality play. Rogues and rapscallions live to betray in roles tailored made. Atone for your sins, lest your comeuppance begins. Not on your terms, to say the least. On sin do not the wicked feast? Loyalty is not a mere abstraction. Retribution accords divine satisfaction.
Author
Tony Colatruglio
So much to say, so little the time; but live fictive worlds in winged rhymes.
