Found Ladies and Gentlemen.. The Redeemers at smashwords.com. This is the most entertaining story I've read in a long time, and the continued uplifting tone throughout the narrative was a welcome breath of fresh air. I read it all in one sitting-- once I started, I just couldn't tear myself away. The storyline is engaging, the character development is tight, and I really enjoyed the subtle underlying message of "don't give up on your dreams."
Thank you, Mr. Miller, for sharing your thoughts with us. I look forward to whatever you have for us next.

Just finished this in one sitting. Awesome story and great writing had me hooked from the begginning through to the end. I couldn't wait to see what happened next in the story. It didn't seem as long as it was, I got lost i nthe story while i was reading and the pages flew by! Towards the end I was a little bummed to be nearing the end of the story, loved the characters and the progression of the story!
I look forward to reading more of your work!

Very nice book. Positive and uplifting. Also important plus point is that it has very little content of obscene words and sexual scenes. A little more of reality (lesser happy ever after style) could have been introduced. But overall good book and better than some of the immoral books being released.

This is a great book! I read alot of ebooks and this is the best book I have read this year! Do your self a favor and read this book.
This was a lot of fun. I really didn't expect to enjoy a story about a rock band but as it turned out I liked it a lot. The motivational aspects, the interpersonal relationships, and the theme of characters rising above their flaws made it highly rewarding.
I liked the storyline. I found it very uplifting and I liked the fact that there wasn't in obscenity in it. It is a good book for people of all ages to read; but especially young adults. I loved the happy ending. (I'm just a happy ending type of girl).Please keep writing! I can hardly wait to see what else you got up sleeve!

I enjoyed it very much. It was a page turner (scroller?). It provided a nice message of hard work and persistence paying off. It also was a good example of people from different backgrounds meshing together and overcoming obstacles. I think that teens and adults will like it. Keep on writing, Mr. Miller, your audience awaits the sequel!
I absolutely loved this book. It was warm, entertaining and kept me hooked. Nice style of writing and easy to read. I'm looking forward to reading your next book.

An energetic and fast paced story, you connected with the characters and as the story unwound I found myself not wanting to put the book down as I really wanted to know how it was going to work out for them. A study in modern pop culture and how a group of individuals struggling on the fringe of society were able to transend time and find totally unexpected success

I really it enjoyed the book. It's a quick moving story filled with interesting characters, unexpected plot twists, memorable locations and a strong uplifting message. I was imagining the movie casting as I read it. There are some juicy roles. A very, very impressive debut novel.
if they haven't made a movie about this book yet, i'm wondering why the heck not? It's a charming and uplifting and great book. I read, oh, about 30 books a year and I'm a magazine editor and after I turned 40 a few years ago i decided life is too short to finish books that bore me. As soon as they lose my ineterest, I put them down and move on. I devoured Ladies and Gentlemen the Redeemers on New Year's Eve Day, at the expense of housework, phone calls and my wife's bidding that I do something else besides read that damn book. It's a damn good book.

Downloaded this from Borders.com this weekend. Awesome read. Great characters, and excellent story line. I really enjoyed this read.
Thoroughly enjoyed this title, like others I liked the upbeat message. Style reminiscent of Mitch Albom. Thanks foraking this available for a free read. Congratulations to you Mr. Scott MIller - a wonderful first book! Hope your star rises as high as "The Redeemers"!

Tough to put down. A refreshing change from the morbid, over sexed and dark tales that seem so popular today. Sure would like to see more of the same. Keep it coming Mr.

Very enjoyable story / As a former college program director, it reminds me of "breaking records" and seeing groups take off or in some cases fail. I READ IT ALL IN ONE SITING! / nice ending too.

Outstanding. Wonderful character developement. Miller gives us a delightful weaving of background stories and protagonists.
I want more from this author!
This is one of the best books that I have read in quite a while. The characters were very well put together and the storyline was very believable. Definitely a great read! Hopefully soon Miller will come out with another book. You can still get this book free at kobobooks.com also.

Loved this story. Should be made into a movie! I could see Charlie Sheen as "Bert" And I am NOT a Charlie Sheen fan. Definitively a must read! Keep writing great stories like these.

Wow! What a great read! I definitely see this as a movie, but skip Charlie Sheen. I think his brother, Emilio Estevez, would be a much better choice as Bert, and Morgan Freeman would be a great Gene.

It was an excellent story. Imagine a story without sex or gun fire. I could hardly put it down. Such a different story and I can see a movie being made. and I can see the characters perfectly cast. I am retired and finally have a chance to read. I recieved a literati for Christmas and downloaded the book from Kobo. Definitely a 5.
