Turn the pages of twelve Stephen Francis Montagna book portfolios: synopses, characters, themes and settings for the thrillers and Birth of Wind.

## What a book portfolio holds, and which novels have one

A book portfolio is the author’s own presentation of a novel: an overview, a synopsis, the principal characters, the themes and often the settings and story structure. They are not excerpts of the novels, with one exception—the [Birth of Wind portfolio](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/portfolio/birth-of-wind/) includes a short scene. Each opens as a page-turn flipbook, with a “Read as text” view for screen readers and phones.

Twelve novels have one: [Beyond Yesterday](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/beyond-yesterday/), [Birth of Wind](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/birth-of-wind/), [The Warning of Ramses](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/the-warning-of-ramses/), [IFF: Identify Friend or Foe](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/iff-identify-friend-or-foe/), [The Paradise of the Devil](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/the-paradise-of-the-devil/), [God’s Sword of Justice](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/god-s-sword-of-justice/), [Trump’s Brass Escalator](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/trump-s-brass-escalator/), [The Vulture Will Lead You to Death](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/the-vulture-will-lead-you-to-death/), [Sandstorm](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/sandstorm/), [Bio-Level Three](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/bio-level-three/), [Massive Vinegar Joe Platform](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/massive-vinegar-joe-platform/) and [Code Cold Fire Alert](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/books/code-cold-fire-alert/).

## Questions and answers

### Do the book portfolios contain spoilers?

Some do. Several include a full synopsis written for agents and editors, and the [Warning of Ramses portfolio](https://stephenfmontagnabooks.com/portfolio/the-warning-of-ramses/) says plainly that it reveals the ending. Read the novel page first if you want the story fresh.

### Is a book portfolio the first chapter?

No. A portfolio describes the novel—its story, characters and themes—rather than reproducing it.
