Ben Shapiro releases his first book of short stories! In "What's Fair," an incredible invention leads to bloody brutality when an unsatisfied brother decides he hasn't received what he's owed. In "From The Pit," an adventurer shrinks to microscopic size to clean up the environment -- but finds himself targeted for murder when he is accidentally ingested into the body of his mysterious employer. In "Utopia," a man abandons paradise when he realizes that paradise isn't all that it's cracked up to be -- but his escape poses a threat to that paradise. From science fiction to parable, from love to violence, Shapiro's exciting stories capture the imagination. Ben Shapiro is the author of six nonfiction books, including The New York Times bestselling "Bullies" (Simon and Schuster, 2013). He is editor of DailyWire.com, editor-at-large of Breitbart News, co-host of KRLA 870's "The Morning Answer" in Los Angeles, and a nationally syndicated columnist. Labeled "brilliant" by Rush Limbaugh, a "warrior" by Glenn Beck, and "a foe of extraordinary polemic agility" by the Washington Post, Shapiro is widely considered one of the most prominent young conservatives in America. This volume contains his first foray into the fiction world.

6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. If you like Stephen King and Ayn Rand this will be right ... By Amazon Customer A short, entertaining read with some unique premises. The ending of the 3rd story was especially powerful. If you like Stephen King and Ayn Rand this will be right up your alley.
7 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Impressive debut. Can't wait for more! By Nefi Spoiler free review of each story:What's Fair :Great opening story that leaves you with just the right amount of dread (which is great with Halloween around the corner!). The writing was excellent. Shapiro does an exquisite job of giving the reader a connection with the narrator - which makes the climax of the story that much more jarring. My only problem is that, for my tastes, it's "message" was too subtle. Ironically, I had the opposite problem with the second story.From the Pit:This is the more imaginative story of the bunch. One of the biggest challenges of writing short story sci-fi is that you have to build a world for the reader very quickly. Shapiro accomplishes this very smoothly. It is essentially a parable about a controversial social issue. As I was reading it I couldn't help but be impressed with how clever the idea was. Unfortunately, there's a line the antagonist says that essentially blurts out the overarching analogy. Obviously, it doesn't ruin it but it was out of place in a story that I enjoyed mostly for its clever subtlety.Utopia:This was my favorite of the bunch. Almost every worldview has made its case in the Dystopian Future genre. Shapiro does an excellent job of touching on themes that put forth his worldview as offering the best critique. The conversation at the end makes me wish the author would give it the full book treatment and write his own sci-fi Road to Serfdom with this short story essentially being its last chapter.Ben Shapiro's first foray into the fiction world is an impressive debut. I'd give it a 3.9 but I had to bump it up to a 4.0 because Utopia has the distinction of depicting the most judicious use of the Pentateuch I've ever read.
4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. An enjoyable short read By Moose Three (Very) short stories. Each is a quick read but thought provoking. All three are allegorical in nature. I am not sure how to categorize "What's Fair". "From the Pit" is science fiction. "Utopia" is (in a predictable irony from the title) the story of a dystopic future.One minor problem I will mention with the KINDLE VERSION (hopefully an editor will fix this quickly so the complaint will not make sense to future readers) is that the three stories are not listed separately in the table of contents. It may be nitpicking but it makes the formating seem unprofessional when you can not just jump to the second or third story if you want to rather than paging through the ebook.I will not go into detail about the allegories, but as you guess; by either being familiar with the author or by the fact that the first several negative reviews are both obviously fake and dishonest; the lessons are conservative in nature. The author does show potential with writing fiction and I hope that he does more in the future.
