 Either Schizophrenia or magic realism, death follows Howard. As dead approaches him through the uncanny endings of those around him, Howard is forced to face his fears and truths hidden deep in his house. Still looking for help and solace, Howard is unable to find peace until his partner, Reginal, makes a miraculous comeback from a land Howard finds unknown. Andrew creates a well-rounded story that is not centered in one single topic as he mixes suicide, drug, and alcohol usage with drag shows, bars, and a spicy scene making the reading experience a complete adventure.
