The Reviews Are In
Starting today, and continuing throughout the month, I’ll be posting advance reviews of the novel Minute Men: Execute & Run.
First up is an endorsement from Michael Libling, the World Fantasy Award-nominated author of Hollywood North and The Serial Killer’s Son Takes a Wife.
Also a short story writer, Michael has appeared in the genre’s top magazines, including Isaac Asimov’s Science Fiction Magazine, where his most recent story, “Trial by Harry,” was featured in the May/June 2025 issue.
Clearly, Michael knows his stuff, and so brother Christopher and I were delighted when he asked to take a look at an advance copy of MM: E&R.
Here’s some of what he had to say.
Michael Libling on Minute Men: Execute & Run
Coming up with an exciting new concept in the superhero genre is no easy feat, but the Connolly brothers have pulled it off in rousing fashion. Prepare to be blown away, and then some!
MINUTE-MEN: EXECUTE & RUN just might be the book Stan Lee and Jack Kirby would have written had they been novelists rather than comic book creators. All the ingredients are here in an origin story sparkling with originality. A ragtag team of all-too-human superheroes, men and women forced together by science, subterfuge, and their own startling limitations. A disparate crew of villains, the ones you recognize right off and the ones you never see coming, including the most intriguing evil entity in recent memory. And it’s all served up with heart-pounding action that keeps you hooked first page to last.
Clever. Entertaining. Compelling. If ever a story deserves a big screen treatment, this spectacularly rendered thrill ride is it. MINUTE-MEN: EXECUTE & RUN…RUN is right! RUN to read it now!”
