Murder on Everest

"Murder on Everest is an exciting murder mystery, featuring not just the usual dangers of mountaineering but those brought by man as well. Power, greed and envy all abound in a delightful mix of intrigue set in a fascinating and little known locale. The first of a new series it is a great read and I highly recommend it."  -- Mike Hamilburg, Literary Agent

I love murder mysteries in general but I never have read one about a murder on Mt. Everest. Who would have thought to murder someone on Mt. Everest. How original!---It was well written and full of great information about climbing. -- Grant Stoaks, Phoenix

Charles Irion and Ronald Watkins are wordsmiths extraordinaire! Abandoned on Everest was an exciting preguel to Murder on Everest. As the story continues, more characters are introduced and the excitement builds to frenzy after frenzy, people literally dropping like flies, along with the temperatures. Bundle up in front of the fire and prepare yourself for an adventure you are not soon to forget. Can't wait for the next book in the series. This is the stuff that Book Clubs live for. -- Carol P., New River, AZ

WOW! What an intriguing murder mystery, gripping until the end. Suspense is unbound. I had no idea who murdered Derek until the end. Congratulations to the authors Irion and Watkins. I hope this will be the first of many great reads from the Summit Murder Series. -- Jennifer, AZ


Abandoned on Everest

Wow!!! This has it all, adventure, drugs, sexual misadventures, pregnancy, abortion, cowardice, theft and sabotage. There are so many twists and turns in this delightfully written book, that you can't put it down!  The beginning of an eight book series that you don't want to miss!!! See you on the next summit ... -- Carol P., New River, AZ

Once I read Murder on Everest I had to read Abandoned on Everest. The book's dedication says it all "to those who love scandals, misdeeds, and revenge!" It's also interesting how the fictional author (Quentin Stern) is used to tell the scandalous truth. This is a perfect companion book to Murder on Everest. -- Jennifer, AZ



Autograph Hell

"Hold the presses ... I need another copy of the book Autograph Hell. One for me and one to lend selectively to family and friends. The book has done 3 things for me. It has explained 1) why I need to change my way of thinking about collecting autograph. 2) I have been shown I can avoid the traps and 3) the book provides the tools and way to navigate, moving forward. Wow - Many thanks!"

"I just read your book. Great job!  You tell it like it is and give good practical advice about what works and make it understandable. Autograph Hell is a a book that I will always recommend.  You cover it much better than anthing else out ther and more completely too. I would have loved to have know some of the ins and outs, but at least your book can show not only me, but others the way."

"I just finished reading "Autograph Hell." An Intro and seven chapters of nothing but the truth. Autograph collector, Charles Irion has put together a book that every collector should get his hands on. From the history of collecting to his own experiences, Irion hit it right on the head. What a great, entertaining and educational read! I loved it and can't wait to read his entire "Hell" series. Anyone can see that a lot of work and time went into this book. I would venture to say that Irion puts this much effort into all of his writing." Sincerely,  Raymond (avid fan) Cardi

"Great guide for autograph collector. Just read your book. Great job. You tell it like it is and give good practical advice about what works and make it understandable. This is a great guide for autograph collector around the globe. People will be better served if they just get your book and realize that they can avoid the pitfalls of this industry."

"I bought this book for my Uncle for Christmas and he was thrilled to have it! Uncle Tom has been an autograph collector most of his life and this book has given him the information he needed in order to get his collection authenticated and organized for the lucky family that will one day inherit and enjoy his collection. Thanks Charles Irion!" -- Carol P., New River, AZ

"Autograph hell--------"I wish I would have read this before I bought that autographed baseball on ebay---This book exposes dealers, authenticators and the business of autograph collecting in general--filled with facts you must arm yourself with before you invest your hard earned money in that supposedly real signed baseball!" -- Grant Stoaks, Phoenix



Car Dealer Hell


"As a recently divorced woman, I was dreading buying my next car. After reading this book, I’ll be loaded for bear when I enter the next dealership!"

"I had a few laughs when I started reading Car Dealer Hell. But by the time I was finished, all the fear of entering car dealerships had crept back into my memory. In the long run this book gave me all the ammo and knowledge to brave my way back to make a purchase, Great book! I am telling all of my friends 'DO NOT buy a car without reading this first'." Sincerely, (avid reader) Raymond Cardi

"After decades of buying new and used cars and trucks of every description, I thought I knew all the tricks of car dealerships. Wrong! I didn’t, but I do now, thanks to Car Dealer Hell. I recommend you download the “Salvation” chapter today."

"Just one section of this book saved me thousands of dollars and hours of woe. Buy it, read it, use it, love it!"

"Thanks for this. My teenage daughter wants to start looking for a car, and I’ve always been afraid that she was going to get ripped off. This is going to be very helpful for us to read before we get started shopping."

"Irion does it again. He is famous for exposing the truth. And Car Dealer Hell is no exception. He reveals all the tricks of the trade used by car dealers. I hate car buying. But now I'm ready thanks to Car Dealer Hell. It saved me a lot of anguish, grief and money." --Jennifer, AZ



Remodeling Hell


"Amazing.  I cannot put the highlighter down, and I am torn between finishing the project I have already started or re-reading your book."

"It is a must for anybody. Irion's book is essential reading for any level of remodeling. If you read only one book on this subject, make it this one! It is a must for anybody planning to take to plunge ... an excellent resource tool."

"I wished I had read before.  I personally found some of the remodeling advice to be some of the best I have read in quite some time. The information regarding this necessary and sometimes confusing undertaking, is outlined a a humorous, but practical manner. I wished I had read before spending thousands of dollars when I remodeled my home."

"I have been buying, remodeling and selling homes for the better part of thirty years. A friend of mine told me to read "Remodeling Hell" by Charles Irion. I have thanked that friend on numerous occassions and I thank Irion for writing the book. I wish he would have written it a long time ago. I'd have had a lot fewer headaches that came from dealing with contractors and sub-contractors. Irion writes from his own remodeling experiences and couldn't have told this story and the truth any better. It was informative and yet entertaining. If you, or anyone you know has plans to remodel, whether it's one room or an entire house, has to read "Remodeling Hell" first. You'll be glad and then you'll thank me for telling you about it ...oh, and you'll thank Charles Irion for writing it too. GREAT READ!" Sincerely, Raymond (avid Irion fan) Cardi



Divorce Hell

"First, the book title is somewhat confusing. Divorce Hell is about how to make your relationship stronger and avoid the hell divorce can cause. Irion is candid about his own story of divorce in the first chapter. The following chapters recount various stories of divorce. I was amazed and intrigued by the research Irion did for the chapter on Divorce Rituals. My favorite chapter is Salvation. Irion calls it a love guidebook. Divorce Hell is an interesting, fun, and fact-filled read." -- Jennifer, AZ

"I recently went through a divorce. I know that when you are married, you don't think of reading books with the word 'divorce' in the title - doesn't add points to the positive outlook meter - But I sure wish that had read this book years ago. It would have prepped me for what was definitely an experience in hell. Great stories, great reading. This book is certainly formatted and written with great talent and I can't wait to read more from Irion."  Sincerely, Raymond Cardi


Roadkill Cooking For Campers

"This cookbook has something for everyone and more. Everything you need to know to survive off the land, air and water. Recipes for Wild Game Hunters, Fishermen and Vegetarians, lots of funny graphics and Secrets of Hunters and Trappers. An excellent gift book!!!" -- Carol P., New River, AZ

"I love this fun, humorous, and one-of-a-kind cookbook. It's a great novelty gift. Full of wild recipes and crazy illustrations. The author is one funny guy. Thanks Charles Irion!" -- Jennifer, AZ
