“Cleansing Eden is a highly suspenseful read. Benjamin Sobieck has an inventive way with words. He writes with a voice that’s strong and uniquely his.” â€" Debbi Mack, New York Times best-selling author of the Sam McRae series

“Cleansing Eden by Benjamin Sobieck is a gripping story about individuals who give up more and more of themselves over time, becoming the things they hate.” â€" Michelle Peden Vasquez, Life in Review

“Benjamin Sobieck has got mad skills when it comes to taking complex characters, fantastic crime, murder, drugs, and good vs. evil, rolling them up into one and spitting out a novel that will twist and grip you from beginning to end.” â€" Molly Edwards, Reviews by Molly

“Drugs. Murder. Charismatic demagogues. What else does a reader need? Ben Sobieck’s first book, and a damn good one. He’s going to write more. And they will be just as great to read.” â€" B.R. Stateham, crime author

“Maynard is the philosopher-cum-man-of-action that we all wish we could be, the detective who solves mysteries by turning idiocy against itself.” â€" Peter Rozovsky, Detectives Beyond Borders (Spinetingler Award winner)

“Benjamin Sobieck shattered the formula of genre storytelling not with a hammer or a scalpel, but with a flaming sword â€" taking aim at conventional structure, plot progression and prose form, and scattering them into flaming little embers.” â€" Matthew C. Funk in Fiction Weekly, Full Stop Magazine
