Barry, thanks so much for the kind words. Really cool to get an email from you! I'm a huge fan of your work--ripped through the Rain novels in under a week, and coincidentally have been enjoying your latest effort on the Kindle on this trip. (Just touched down in Dubai an hour ago, en route to country X.) Would be great to stay in touch.
Barrett, thanks for the intro--keep up the good fight, dude.
All the best,
Michael

Michael, just heard from our mutual acquaintance Barrett Brown that you've read a bunch of my books. Thanks for that -- and more importantly, for being a real journalist. If you don't mind my saying, you have balls and integrity to spare and I hope your history with Newsweek and your defense of the excellent McChrystal article have inspired newer journalists to follow your example. They've certainly inspired me.
All the best,
Barry Eisler
