“A rollick of a read!  Doug Magee has conjured up a delightful farce of misperception. We think we see those on the other side of the cultural divide, but Saved asks us to take a better look.” 
      Suzanne McConnell, co-author of Pity the Reader: On Writing with Style (with Kurt Vonnegut)

"What happens when a belief system, blindly followed, suddenly disappears and you feel truly reborn? Reminiscent of Carl Hiaasen and Christopher Guest, Doug Magee’s SAVED takes you on the hilarious, rollicking, irreverent, journey of one man’s unexpected liberation."                David Strathairn, Academy Award nominated actor (Good Night and Good Luck)

"In SAVED, as in his earlier novel PRESIDENT BLOG, Doug Magee walks a literary tightrope.  Implausibility may yawn beneath him on every side, but he never loses his footing.  The novel is funny, shrewdly plotted, and terrifically entertaining, a pleasure from first page to last."
          Erick Tarloff, author of Face Time

“This book has everything: sex, politics, religion, and an original and compelling main character.  Magee makes us laugh many times.  These days, laughing has become priceless. This book is perfect for the times we live in.”
       Esther Cohen, author of All of Us, Stories and Poems Along Route 17

"So what in God's name is going on next door?!  In Doug Magee's irreverent hands, pretty much everything: faith, hope, love, courage, and redemption." 
          Mike Bryan, author of Chapter and Verse.

"There is deep humor in SAVED — not just the kind that makes you chuckle on every other page (which I did), but the kind that makes you think. An ingenious story with a life-changing twist." 
          Dan Barker, former evangelical minister, author of Contraduction and Life Driven Purpose.

"Are you in need of a heartfelt and hilarious satire with universal appeal? Then SAVED is for you. Doug Magee has captured the soul of his subjects and this reader's heart."
        Lynn Schnurnberger, bestselling author of The Botox Diaries and Mine Are Spectacular! 

"In his uproarious novel, SAVED, Doug Magee has produced a truly hilarious take-down of this country's absorption with sexual and religious propriety as the linchpins that hold together the fragile morality of Middle America.
          Bruce Porter, author of Blow
