"I just wanted to write and tell you how much I enjoyed your book, GAME.  It reminded me of my high school football experience...in my hometown in Tennessee.  I could easily take my high school teammates names and insert them into your book, as well as the names of some of our opponents.  I will recommend this book to the Tennessee Football Coaches Association [members].  I’m sure there will be some, if not all, who will want to participate in reading something that is so real and appropriate in most every setting in our state, if not the entire nation.  Thanks again for writing such a wonderful and realistic book!"
Gary Shephard, President
Tennessee Football Coaches Association

"Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down."

"Friday night I thought I would just start [reading GAME]. Once I began I couldn't put it down. It's really well written and the action kept me me going until the end. The Epilogue was a fabulous close for me. Seeing what those kids did touched my heart...Congrats on a terrific book.

"I thoroughly enjoyed [GAME]. I will tell other coaches about this book."

"[GAME is] a masterly written tale of rural football in Oklahoma. Each character is so richly portrayed...you feel like you are on the sidelines and in the locker room with these kids. GAME goes way beyond the game of high school football."
Brock Sawyer, High School Sports The Magazine

"...easy reading and a great story."
John O'Dell, State Director
Oklahoma Fellowship of Christian Athletes

"I'm a 30 year veteran of Texas high school football campaigns, and wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed [reading GAME]. The book brought back many remembrances of Friday night contests...and the similarities between those times and your book were closely related. You did a fantastic job in painting a picture for readers to follow. The game is just a part of the story, it's the side lights that brings it together. It was one of my most enjoyable reading experiences. It's a story like [GAME] that reminds me of why I chose football coaching as a career."

Retired Teacher and Texas High School Coach

"If you aren't a football fan, you'll still like this book. Truman has crafted an incredible story of small town life full of rich characters and colorful scenery. Truman's wit and humor comes alive in the dialogue that almost makes you believe you are standing right there in Tsalagee Oklahoma listening in on all the conversations. In small-town Oklahoma, high school football is everything and Game tells the whole story, but this novel is not just about football. It's about finding oneself by by helping others find meaning in their own life."
