Many Types of Lords

Posted on June 27, 2020 by Joel D. Hirst

“Joel D. Hirst’s masterpiece is a worthy best-selling novel brimming with poignant lessons about idealism, culture, and religion. It begs us to examine the current state of the world today, a world so divided by different idealisms and misruled by many types of lords. Hirst uses language as flavorful and vibrant as the culture in the Sahara but without giving in to unnecessary theatrics. The result is an extremely satisfying literary experience.”

Riveting from start to finish, Lords of Misrule is a must-read from a master storyteller, Joel D. Hirst.
