    About this ebook

    New Orleans, Louisiana. 20th Century.

    You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution. That is simply a life decision. Regardless of what others may say or think, people are a product of their environment. In that same regard, people are also a product of their life experiences. If they are good, then in most cases, the individual will turn out good. But, if they are awful, the propensity for an individual to venture on a destructive course will be greatly increased. Although, the finish line of that course is unknown, more than likely it will not be blessed with pretty tape and people cheering.

    Algernaun Breaux fits the profile of the latter. He is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana and reared in the Calliope Housing Projects; a dangerous tenement situated in the Third Ward section of Uptown. After his twin brother, Vernaud, is brutally murdered, Algernaun's spirit is left destroyed and his mental state...unstable. He vows to seek revenge on not only the person responsible for Vernaud’s death, but more shockingly on...unsuspecting, innocent others.

    What happens as a result is clearly unimaginable...

    This will open your mind...

    This will cut your soul...

    This is Breaux.

    Chamsil

    Chamsil is an author who writes both traditionally and floetically. He is multi-dimensional, which allows him to easily tailor his writing style to a variety of genres. Chamsil has also experienced great success in the spoken word arena as he is a two-time Kalamazoo Poetry Slam Winner, and former co-host of a show on BlogTalkRadio titled, SOUNDNOFF Poetical Showcases with Author, Samara King. He has the ability to draw in an audience with his storytelling and vivid imagery. Chamsil has never been one to bite his tongue on controversial topics such as sex, race, abuse, murder, etc. He definitely likes to keep it raw and most importantly real. He maintains an intense passion for writing and is always brainstorming new concepts, which keeps his creativity as fresh as it possibly can be. At the end of the day, Chamsil feels that it is all about four major components: hunger, determination, drive, and passion to get your voice out there and be heard and most importantly, respected. Chamsil is the complete creative package. You get all of him and nothing less. Chamsil is a native of Kalamazoo, Michigan and graduate of Western Michigan University.
