struggle, acceptance, personal baggage, addiction and how an average guy
becomes a reluctant superhero empowered by ancient
Egyptian mythology is translated from Jason Anthony's dreams, journal
entries and notes while going through treatment for an eating disorder.
This unique look into an eating disorder, a comic book styled hero and
Egyptian faith walks the reader through Mile's eyes as he learns the
truth
of his new self while he rediscovers the old.
