Thanks to some positive word-of-mouth, I'm happy to say that my book has almost sold out! This was really unexpected, and I thank everyone for their support and enthusiasm!
A second printing might happen in the future. Should I decide to go through with it, we'll probably completely redesign the book's cover and inside layout, as well as make some minor editorial adjustments to the text.
In the meantime, you still might be able to find some 1st-run copies at Amazon, as well as some of the independent bookstores listed below...
When Micah Cohen was five years old, he lost his parents to a horrible accident. He was convinced he would have died himself, had it not been for his guardian angel -- in the form of a little girl he never saw again. Now, over twenty years later, Micah is living in the frenzy of Manhattan. With Christmas right around the corner and no one to share it with -- add a thankless job, no close family or friends -- Micah believes that his life has become too hard, and his existence too inconsequential. Sadly, he decides to end it all...but the attempt fails ridiculously.
And that's just when Coltan pops up in the middle of Micah's living room. Possessing supernatural powers and a sadistic sense of humor, this bumbling "agent for the afterlife" has come to collect Micah's soul. But there are two slight problems: Micah is still alive, and now has second thoughts about committing suicide. Reluctantly, Coltan must admit defeat.
Rejuvenated by his new lease on life, Micah's determined to set things right. One good thing comes in the form of Christine -- a young homeless woman he befriends. But soon Micah learns that she is more than she appears to be: his childhood guardian angel, now grown up. (Naturally, they can't help but risk upsetting the cosmic order of the universe by falling in love.)
Yet this happiness may be fleeting. Just as Micah realizes how wonderful his life has become, Coltan reappears to inform him that his days are now numbered -- for Death itself is hunting Micah down. And so Christine, ever the dutiful protector, must prepare to do battle over Micah's soul.
