    About this ebook

    Jacob Connor has led a charmed life. He was saved from sexual slavery by Zeus, and was once the beloved of Orpheus. So much contact with the uncanny has left him split, though; one half weak, a perpetual victim, the other half consumed by anger and pain. Can the same powers that split him in half reunite him once more, and balance the division?

      My wife, Gin, once knocked gently on my head, as if it were a door. “Hello,” she kept saying. “Hello. Who’s in there?” She and our therapist, Dr. Sherby, laughed a little about this, so I did, too. What fun. Keep knocking on my head like that, like i

      I relaxed on the couch watching an illegal show on videotape. “They had such freedom of language back then,” I thought. “I told you to sit, retard,” the man on the screen shouted. Reluctantly plopping down, the other man mumbled, “Faggot.” “We can’t
