His life takes an unexpected turn when he is forced to confront his own personal demons about bigotry, love and loyalty.

5 out of 5 stars Farewell Principle   January 11, 2000
The author brings you into the personal lives of his characters as he develops a fast paced socially enlightening legal thriller. The novel's action is accurately showcased in Southeastern Michigan. You not only get to know the characters, but if you live in Michigan you recognize the familiar landmarks. If you aren't from Michigan, you learn about the Motor City and its suburbs as well as understanding the politics of the area. This story has an important message. Hate, redemption, intolerance, nobleness, and prejudice are dealt with in enlightened terms.


5 out of 5 stars Very Solid! Very Good!   March 17, 1999

I like a book that gets your heart pumping and your mind racing. This one does 'em both. After you read this book, you'll realize what the power of the pen is all about. I recommend this highly.


4 out of 5 stars Well-written legal story that will hold your attention   December 16, 1998
"The Farewell Principle" by Steven Weiss is a fast-paced story that incorporates legal and personal challenges of a Michigan attorney, Maurice "Mo" Robinson. Mo is forced to face his own personal prejudices and loyalties when he encounters a white supremacist group.Mo grapples with real-life situations that makes one question one's own values and beliefs. This page-turner is especially satisfying to people familiar with Detroit since many Detroit streets and buildings are mentioned.(a la Elmore Leonard}.Steve Weiss, a first-time novelist, has successfully written a realistic compelling story that I would highly recommend.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent yarn about murder, bigotry, racism and trial drama   December 5, 1998
This is an outstanding first time effort in fiction concerning problems of our time in urban center. Revolves around a racial murder resulting in trial drama with former prosecutor defending a life long friend. The characters are well defined. An additional twist depicts member of the cloth attempting to reform a racial bigot by logic and friendship. Good yarn!


5 out of 5 stars Move over John G.   November 29, 1998
Reads like Grisham, but makes you think. as well. You'll love the realistic characters in this page turner. Once you get going, save time to finish, because you won't be able to put it down.
