About this ebook

Fourteen year old Leo has got his life in front of him. Unfortunately, someone has decided that he will not live to see it... But who wanted him dead in the first place and why is he being targeted by an evil force? Leo's search for the truth takes him to the most amazing places, and presents him with a challenge greater than dying: to protect his family and his best friend from a terrible fate.

Author

Jerome Parisse

I was born and grew up in France, where I developed a love for language, literature, and good food. In my early thirties I moved to Australia where I am based now. I am an agricultural economist and a linguist by education, and a management consultant by trade. However, my passion for writing and literature led me to more creative endeavours... I started by writing short plays. Having studied acting in Sydney and in Paris, it just seemed a natural extension of performing on stage. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to continue. The rest is history, as we say... I write in both English and French. One of my plays, My Sister's Choice, also makes extensive use of sign language. I have published one novel, The Wings of Leo Spencer, and two plays, The Birthday Knife and Guys, Only Guys! I have written two full-length plays and a large number of short plays, which have been produced in America, Australia, the UK, Singapore and Malaysia. Some of them have won prizes. I have also written and published (mostly online) a large number of articles related to the issue of rare diseases, research and patients, translated in many languages throughout Europe. My writing credits also include an award-winning short story and a radio play. I'm currently working on a full-length play involving spoken English and sign language, and shorter plays. I'm also putting the final touch to two novels, one for young adult (in English), titled Body Swap and another one in French, Metaphore du Rapide. Here's a list of my plays: Full-Length Plays My Sister's Choice Two sisters. Both Deaf. One who signs and one who doesn't. It's all very well, until one of them introduces her boyfriend to the other… A two-act play written for Deaf and hearing audiences, with a mixture of spoken and signed languages Eighty-three What would you do if your eighty-three year old father told you he was dating someone, shortly after your mother's passing? And what if he had been doing so for many years? Short Plays Love and Light Tania's deceased husband has left her with bills to pay, no job and no idea where he stashed the money. Will consulting a Psychic provide her with the answer she seeks? The Birthday Knife Never give someone a knife for their birthday… you may end up regretting it. Guys, Only Guys! David is about to reincarnate as a gay man… and he is ecstatic. But sho...

    This book for teenagers has some very interesting ideas in it though written in a somewhat flat style at times. It is essentially a fantasy, with the setting in an imaginary world called Heaven, complete with landscapes, hierarchical levels, a power structure and its own mysteries. The protaganist is a 14 year old boy who has recently arrived in Heaven. The novel explores family love, friendship, trust, and of course good versus evil. It has a positive resolution.

    I liked a lot of the ideas in this book - like the original view of heaven and the angels - but in some parts it fell flat. I felt some of the ideas introduced weren't fully developed and at times it skipped over information that would have been relevant to better understanding the plot.I also couldn't really figure out what age group this book is intended for.
