Overview
Written by A. W. Stripling, Jr. Edits by Beverly Simmons Cover Design by Jeannie Ruiz Since the time of Aristotle, political philosophers have noted that those who live in cities have a different sensibility than those who live in the countryside. The Cyclist Gabriel was born into a country family to a father who wanted a better life for his son than his country community offered. Over five years, he put a plan in motion that placed Gabriel in the top boys' school in the nearby metro area. That is where the story really begins. Living through failure, lies and deceit, Gabriel made his way out into the world, green, but eager. Travel with him as he finds the love of his life, the heartbreak of the path we sometimes have to choose, and the hand of fate playing its final card. Cover Art licensed from anatoliy_gleb
