Synopsis
Introducing Denverite Brendan Murphyor Murph as he s known to the rest of the world. He lives alone in his crow s nest apartment, fries a hamburger for every meal, does his dish, then channel surfs for reruns of Gilligans Island. He is a radical minimalist. He strives to earn no more money as a driver for Rocky Mountain Taxi Company than his needs require. He is determined to stay out of the lives of those he transports. He struggles with one issue and is spectacularly bad with the other. The Asphalt Warrior is the first of eleven adventures. Come prowl the mean streets of Denver with Murph and ponder the meaning of the world and all sorts of deep questions, such as: Why would anyone want to DO anything?

Review
Gary Reilly is the kind of writer who leaves you smiling at the sheer pleasure of his word choices. The Asphalt Warrior is a fun-filled read, and you can't help rooting for the the book's taxi driving hero. If Murph doesn't win your heart, it can't be won." -- Mark Graham, Co-Author of The Natanz Directive, St. Martin's Press (September 2012)
“The Asphalt Warrior is one of those rare books that a reader really should savor, line by line, taking time to enjoy the intelligence, sarcasm and dry wit of the main character, Murph. I found Murph to be laugh-out-loud and consistently funny, yet life-smart and grudgingly loveable.” -- Kathy Lynn Harris, Author of Blue Straggler, an Amazon #1 bestseller in comic fiction.
“Gary Reilly proves himself to be not just a gifted stylist, but a kind of Jedi Master of the understated." -- Fred Haefle, Montana Freelance Writer & Author of "Extremeophilia."
