Book excerpt: What do you get when you take a man who has the desire, and mind to become the biggest drug dealer to ever step foot on U.S. soil, the muscle of a five man crew, a drop dead gorgeous criminal attorney who has an extreme fetish for drug dealers, and a crooked cop who happens to be the head narcotics detective for Chicago’s North Side....you get “DA BLOCK”. Not your average ordinary Drug Lord story. Walk with me through the streets of the Chi and watch as Black and the crew criminal elements collide to create the true definition of drama: Sex, money, and violence. DA BLOCK is an urban masterpiece. A thrill ride that grabs you and refuses to let go. Not many first time novels have been reversed as classic, but DA BLOCK is one. Watch out Terri Woods, move over Dutch trilogy. DA BLOCK is officially the Godfather of all street novels. DA BLOCK. Like it or not it all goes down right here. Other novels by DAVID JOSEPH SILAS: What Love Sees, DA BLOCK II (Road to Riches), Stick up Kid, Sexapades, Taking down the Families, etc.....
