When 29 year old New Jersey Spartans Owner Jeremy Spears looked at college Quarterback T.J. Ripper he didn’t see the dark past that would shove him out of the early rounds of the Global Football League Draft. He saw a familiar drive, a fire in his eyes that he believed would lead his organization to the playoffs and beyond. After a crushing injury threatens the Spartans playoff hopes, it is up to their rookie quarterback to win over his teammates and save the season. Little did Ripper know it would be the obstacles off the field that would threaten to sack their football season and maybe even his career.

5.0 out of 5 stars A "Glorious" Football Read!
Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2015

Gridiron Glory is a coming of age story featuring T.J. Ripper, a rookie quarterback trying to gain the respect of his Spartans teammates. His agent, Robert Shroud is working hard to get his agency off the ground, but has to contend with not only the players he represents, but his girlfriend Nia who is beginning to lose faith in him. Jeremy Spears, a young tech billionaire who wanted to buy a football team is the General Manager of the New Jersey Spartans at the ripe old age of 29. He not only juggles the day-to-day issues that arise from owning a football team, but he's falling in love with his girl Daisy ... which gets complicated.

Ripper, who's been in and out of trouble since he was a teenager because of the antics of his cousin Will, wants to stay on the right path, but finds himself in the middle of a love triangle. Needless to say, things begin to get crazy.

This book is a fast, fun read with diverse characters ... one that everyone can relate to!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sports fiction
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2015

I have always been a sports fan and football is one of my favorite sports to watch, talk about, and read about. This even carries through into the pages of fiction so I pre-ordered "Gridiron Glory" as the story line was one that intrigued me. The story of a fictional football league and, specifically, the New Jersey Spartans. The team has a young owner and a rookie quarterback, T.J. Ripper, with a troubled past. There are some suspenseful elements to this story which definitely make it a page-turner and the sports element is played (pun intended) very well. This was a very well-written and well executed story with great characters that I could easily relate to. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fun and Fast Moving Ride of a Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2015
Brown's Gridiron Glory is a fast-moving thrill ride for football lovers who also love a good book. Readers who love a great story with engaging story will be able to get into the book and relate to the characters on a non-football level while readers who are also sports fans will also get sucked into the passion and pressure of a professional football season. From start to finish, the characters and scenes are woven together in a way that fleshes out the world Brown creates while still allowing for depth in plot and character. Whether you're passing time until the next game starts, just looking for a good book, or a long-time fan of inspirational sports movies built around engaging teams and characters, you'll find something to pull you into this book.

If it sounds at all appealing, I can't recommend it highly enough. It has a little bit of everything, genre-wise, and moves so quickly that it's nearly impossible to put down.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this author
Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2017
Once again, Kevon Brown has done it for me! I love this author! In this book, he shows us that the world of football isn't always what we think. I like the way that Brown focused on the way Shroud is trying to get his company off of the ground and help to get these players in the game that they love. From the very beginning of this book, I was drawn in by the details and the characters. The way that they relate and speak to each other is so real and true. It hits you in the right places.

4.0 out of 5 stars Vivid Sports Read
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2017
It's a great read for those who live in the realm of sports, especially football. While it is centered around the game of football, there is a definitive plot with very human characters at its center. Each character has a distinct voice that you get to know on a personal level throughout the book. It's a story loaded with jargon and scenarios that perfectly mirror the sports world. There were times where I felt like I was actually watching ESPN, but then stepping into the reality of the world and the people that the sportscasters were discussing. Very interesting read for someone like me who would not initially have picked up this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Perception of the Game is Changed
Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2017
I have always liked the way Kevon Brown develops his characters. His skill at character development is just as good as his style of unfolding his story. In one book, Gridiron Glory, Kevon creatively puts his readers in the shoes of these sportsmen, making us see what they pas through. My perception of the game will never remain the same. Because of the intrigue in this book, I join the players in my mind even as I understand and empathize with their battles.
