Praise for Sound of Redemption
“Sound of Redemption hits all the right notes, ringing true to the feel of Band in the Wind. As in the first book, Rostron’s quirky sense of humor, reflected in the playful dialogue between characters, lightened the mood of this otherwise serious and heart-wrenching story. His writing remains addictive, with great emotional engagement for the reader. Sound of Redemption is a tense, moving, character-driven story exploring one man's mission to atone for the wrongs of his past." Online Book Club Review - 4 out of 4 stars

Praise for Band in the Wind . . .

"This book is an almost perfect blend of music, nostalgia, a coming-of-age story...and tragedy! It really does have a bit of everything. Highly entertaining."

- Online Book Review (4/4 stars)

“Rostron manages to capture the mood of this tumultuous time—a feat that takes skill, a great memory, and the ability to put emotion into words.”

- Writers Digest Self Published Book Awards

This tale told by Rostron succeeds...massively. It is a story told with dollops of nitty and gritty but also some blasts and burns that will thrill you as powerfully as...well...as a power chord. A giant power chord, amped up with emotions, friendship, cruelty, hate, revenge, and love

- James J. Spina (contributor to Rolling Stone, Hit Parader, Creem, and Mojo)

“A must-read for book-lovers hoping to experience the lost, yet somehow lingering, days of 1960s American culture.”
