    About this ebook

    In the middle of a western city, under the unflinching stare of a row of towering mountains, Seventeenth Avenue is a peaceful place. A place overseen by the homeless man everyone refers to as The Mayor. Soon he, the boy called Paper, and many others will find themselves enlisted in the oldest conflict of them all. An ancient battle has selected a new arena, and the players are falling into place for the final round.
