A crime thriller set in a near-future America sounds quite intriguing. Thanks for the awesome review!

It's indeed intriguing that an author can predict the future and write vividly about it in a book.
I think it'd be a good read.

"Rickey Montey, Hero of His Age" is a futuristic novel that looks at the world in 2050. It's interesting to note that the author sees America's decline, corruption, and man's subjugation as the order of the day. Technology would replace man in the workplace, and the globalist would remain supreme. It's an interesting read. Thanks for your review.

This review is outstanding and thorough. I commend the author for writing such an intriguing and compelling narrative, as I can see from the review. When you think about it, it might be frightening to imagine a future where technology rules and manages everything, seemingly washing away the worth of humans. Due to the fact that technology has replaced human occupations, I am interested in how Rickey managed to get himself out of the jam he found himself in.

The story pictures a future where technology has replaced many humans jobs. In this story, there lives a young adult named Rickey who struggle to get a job but eventually gets one that later turns out to be a job that would ultimately turn the country upside down. I like how this book contains a great plot twist and is well-written. Nice review.

This sounds like a sci-fi and thriller novel, with espionage themes. Will Rickey be able to withstand the pressure of working for such a complicated organization? I will have to find out.

Thus seems like an exciting fantasy novel about the future. Technology has replaced human beings. Can't wait to read it and find out whether Ricky succeeded. Congrats on BOTD. Great review.

I'm enthralled by the author's wild imagination of the dystopian future.
Rickey found himself entangled in a scheme that could turn the country upside down. I hope he did the right thing eventually.
Thanks for the thoroughly-written review and congrats to the author.

I also wonder how the author made a plot about replacing people with more technology. How sad this must be! I want to know how he depicts the use of technology in this book over people under political schemes.

Thank you for writing such an excellent review of "Rickey Montey Hero of His Age"! Your description of the book's plot and the near-future society in which it is set has made me very intrigued to read it. The fact that the story explores realistic possibilities for the future adds an extra layer of intrigue, and the constant mystery and suspense you mention make it even more appealing.

This doesn't seem like a genre of books I'd be interested in. However, the review is expertly written and would draw out any reader of such a genre. Congrats to the author on being book of the day.

This comprehensive review includes a suggestion for people who like reading sci-fi mysteries. The book looks to approach interesting topics in a novel way, thus it shouldn't be recommended for younger readers who aren't familiar with the political beliefs addressed.

I appreciate how you've highlighted the depth and relatability of Rickey's character in your review. It's always interesting to see how characters evolve when faced with challenges that force them to confront their own beliefs and values. The fact that the book includes Rickey's internal monologue also sounds like it would add to the personal connection I could feel to him as a reader.
