Andrew is having a book-signing for his newly
released book, "The Heretic" this coming Saturday, December 15,
2007- from 1pm - 6pm at B. Dalton Bookstore in the Galleria
Mall, 1300 Sunset Rd. #2713
Henderson NV.
He will be giving
away one free copy of his book, "When The Angels Have Risen,"

at the event.
Synopsis of
"The Heretic":
New Historical Fiction Novel Introduces a Hero – Warrior, Teacher, Lover
– from Ancient Greece
When a man begins experiencing bizarre dreams, a visit to a psychic
transports him to the time of Alexander the Great, and he discovers the
amazing truth about his past in Andrew Feder’s new historical fiction
novel, The Heretic, the sequel to When The Angels Have Risen.
After questioning his bizarre dreams and an unexplained sudden knowledge
of ancient Greek, Jerry Fletcher seeks the help of a psychic, who
suggests that he undergo past life regression. Under this treatment,
Jerry begins remembering his past lives –a Jew during the Warsaw Ghetto
uprising, a young Arapaho brave, a knight during the Middle Ages – until
he stops in Ancient Greece with Aias, a Spartan who was renowned during
his time as the world’s greatest warrior, but whose name went unrecorded
in history.
Aias was not only
Alexander the Great’s mentor and true friend, he was a highly
skilled warrior – akin to a ninja – and an inspiring military hero. The
name of Aias has been mysteriously removed from Alexander’s journal, but
now the truth of this daring man is finally revealed, from the brutal
military campaigns to the erotic escapades.
Alexander the Great often compared Aias to Illiad’s Hector and
Achilles.
Ptlomey thought that Aias was perhaps a God reincarnate from Olympus.
Alexander called him Aries incarnate.
His enemies called him Aias the Decapitator.
Aristotle called him The Heretic.
And the women of
Greece called him … well, you’ll have to read the book to find
out.
A story of romance and violence, adventure and spirituality, "The
Heretic" unveils a new legend at home with the classics.

RADIO SHOWS DIRECT FROM THE CASBAR LOUNGE
This series of radio shows was recorded
in December and January (2004-2005) This is the first in a series of
shows for Internet Broadcasting that we are originating from Las Vegas.
We will be adding more originations of our Las Vegas based radio shows
later this summer.
We chose the Casbar and the
Sahara Hotel to begin
this series of programs because of sentimental value. For several years
I worked as a stand up comic in addition to my broadcast work, I had a
comedy partner, Bobby Sessions. Our first Las Vegas stage appearance was
at the Sandy Hackett Showcase at the Casbar in the middle 1980s.
So scroll down and enjoy the shows.
First
though, a little more about the history of the Casbar Lounge and one of
its major stars in earlier years, Don Rickles.
Don Rickles will be
back at the Stardust Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, October 20 to 24,
2005. Our shows on this page originate from the Casbar Theatre Lounge at
the Sahara Hotel and Casino. The lounge is at a different location in
the Casino area than it was in the 60s and 70s. Back then, many comic
acts as well as music groups played the lounge. One of the most popular
was Don Rickles whose non-stop banter with the audience and celebrity
guests would go for hours.
Just a short walk down
and on the other side of the casino was the main show room. The Congo
room was dominated by comics as well, major names such as Jerry Lewis
and Johnny Carson. This interview from back in the late 80s on KVEG AM
840 as it was then, shows Rickles on top of his game. We naturally start
off the interview talking about the late great Johnny Carson.
As you heard me say in
the interview with Don Rickles, I used to do stand-up comedy. I worked
for a long time with an impressionist by the name of Bobby Sessions.
Here is a sample of our work from 1986.
