"Be Not Deceived" is Award-Winning Finalist of The National Best Books Awards
(PRWEB) November 13, 2007 -- Ed Mrkvicka's newest book, "Be Not Deceived," a book devoted to helping those who have lost their salvation to the deceptions of the modern world, has been recognized as a finalist in this year's National "Best Books" Awards (BBA) in the category of Christian Inspiration. Previously, "Be Not Deceived" was awarded the Faith Writers Seal of Approval as an "Outstanding Read."
USABookNews.com, the premiere online magazine and review website for mainstream and independent publishing houses, announced the winners and finalists of The National "Best Books" 2007 Awards on November 1, 2007. Over 500 winners and finalists were announced in over 140 categories covering print, audio books & courses, e-books and interactive CD-ROMs. Jeffrey Keen, President and CEO of USABookNews.com, said this year's contest yielded an unprecedented number of entries, which were then narrowed down to over 500 winners and finalists.
Mrkvicka's small-press book competed against the giants of the publishing industry; e.g., Simon & Schuster, Penguin-Putnam, HarperCollins, Random House, John Wiley & Sons, Houghton Mifflin Co, etc. Award winners were some of the year's best-selling publications. Award highlights include the following:
? The Secret by Rhonda Byrne (Simon & Schuster - Atria Books) snagged Best Self-Help: Motivational Book.
? Clive Barker's highly-entertaining, recently released Mister B. Gone (HarperCollins) was honored in the Horror category.
? Acclaimed Artist & Author Thom Bierdz won multiple categories for his self-published autobiography, Forgiving Troy: The Art-o-Biography of Thom Bierdz. Named as one of the must-read books of 2007 by USA Book News.
Keen says of the awards, now in their fourth year, "The 2007 results represent a phenomenal mix of books from a wide array of publishers throughout the United States. As an executive in the publishing PR and marketing industry and president and CEO of JPX Media, I wanted to create an awards competition that recognized books in their publication year rather than months after the original launch window. With a full publicity and marketing campaign promoting the results of BBA, this year's winners and finalists will gain additional media coverage for the upcoming holiday retail season."
Keen adds, "BBA's success begins with the enthusiastic participation of authors and publishers and continues with our distinguished panel of industry judges who bring to the table their extensive editorial, PR, marketing, and design expertise."
Mrkvicka, who wrote "Be Not Deceived" with the editing help of his daughter Kelly, stated, "Receiving national recognition for "Be Not Deceived" is, of course gratifying. As have been the numerous best-possible reviews the book has received. Having said that, the value of the recognition is the hope that it will bring the book to the attention of millions of lost souls who have never truly been saved or who have given away God's unmerited gift of salvation because they believed the lie that we can sin without consequence, when we cannot. Most importantly, if the reader has been deceived, "Be Not Deceived" will help them reclaim God's gift of everlasting life."
