I just started reading Larken Rose's "the most dangerous superstition"
He starts from basic principals and argues that authority and government are inherently immoral and the antithesis of rational human behaviour. (still early in the book so forgive me if I've misrepresented)
I like Rose because he has a way of explaining things that makes them seem so simple. You have a lot of those "a ha" moments while reading it.

I regret that I have but one upvote to give.
The Most Dangerous Superstition by Larken Rose. I believe Part I (of IV) is available in preview on Amazon, as well as on Good Reads.
Unless, of course, OP wants to ease his friends into libertarianism, rather than jumping into full blown voluntarism and morality. :D
If this stuff interests you, check out the book by Larken:

Yes, some have taken steps in the direction of unmasking the ruse. The one who has gone farthest isn't even an academic (to the shame of academics as far as I'm concerned): Larken Rose. Check out The Most Dangerous Superstition. PDF at http://www.mensenrechten.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/the-most-dangerous-superstition-larken-rose-20111.pdf, but I encourage you to support his work and buy a copy at https://www.amazon.com/Most-Dangerous-Superstition-Larken-Rose-ebook/dp/B00UV41W2U/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
I'm taking the next step. Past anarchists still clung to the concept of authority, such as Bakunin in his well-known essay (https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/bakunin/works/various/authrty.htm) Rose limits his critique to state authority, i.e., government. I'm critiquing the concept itself regardless where or how it's brought to play.
