Winter Reading

by | Dec 16, 2024

Libertarian Institute Director Scott Horton’s new book is shaking things up and making a stir all at once. Provoked: How Washington Started The New Cold War With Russia And The Catastrophe In Ukraine is a read it and weep. Or, for the War Party hacks, don’t read it; just weep.

Provoked has been endorsed by former CIA officer and bestselling novelist Barry Eisler. You can read all about it in my latest Institute article.

Eisler, buy his own account, has published a novel that is very Horton-adjacent. The God’s Eye View is some kick-ass thriller fiction underpinned by Eisler’s real-world knowledge of “national security” shenanigans.

And like Horton, Eisler reads his own audio version of the book. So here’s what you do. Snag yourself a copy of Provoked, a copy of The God’s Eye View, and some Moon Does Artisan Coffee (the official coffee of the Scott Horton Show). Brew some coffee, pour yourself a mug, and enjoy the incredible pairing of Horton’s non-fiction and Eisler’s fiction.
