Praise for Like A Man

"Like A Man begins like a scene from Scarface and evolves into an action packed invasion unlike anything I’ve read in any horror or sci-fi story. While not much is revealed about the character Rudy, he is someone I still rooted for. The description of the enemy is fantastic, and I wish North had saved such a creation for a novel, or even a novella, rather than such a brief thriller." -Astra Daemon’s Lair

"This tale fits in well with his other stories with a rough and tumble main character
