This book found me when I needed it, or maybe I needed it all along. If you're in any form of rut - creative, professional, etc. - this book can help you through it. There's one catch. You have to let the book take control. Admit you're in a rut by your own doing, and admit that you need advice. Then take that which the book offers.
This book brought on a long-desired, and long-avoided career change. Its impact was that profound. I will likely wear out the binding, scribble in all the margins, and highlight all the lines. Read the book, you may do the same.

SpoilerA man of noble birth finds his calling, but he's always a moment too late. Could not save his mother. Could not save his father. Could not save the boy. Maybe he will save himself?
His coming of age story was a huge highlight for me.

A tremendous book. I ordered this book out of the back of either Hit Parader or Circus Magazine in the early 2000s. I was fourteen. It hit me so hard, and literally transformed my life.
I'm not overstating. It changed the path of my life - it was my coming of age tale. I'll be forever grateful.
A few years ago, I reached out to the author. He sent along the 10th Anniversary Edition of the book with a different cover - black - and a copy of a later book entitled, “Bride of the Reaper.” Very kind of him to do so.
