About this ebook
As the summer of 1998 nears, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa are racing each other to break the home-run record, Bill Clinton is being questioned about a certain Monica Lewinsky, Semisonic's “Closing Time” is top of the charts, and Carl Carter is leading the Elizabeth Monarchs of rural Vermont to the state championship his senior year. The world is Carl's oyster: a full scholarship to the University of Maine awaits, going pro after college isn't out of the question, and he's so good he can do whatever he wants—until, that is, he makes one very arrogant mistake. Acclaimed graphic novelist Jesse Lonergan offers readers a thought-provoking exploration of the fleeting highs of success in this engrossing book. Read the complete book, available April 1, 2014!

Awesome
About the author
Brought up in New England, Jesse Lonergan, a teacher of ESL in the Boston area, has published two well-acclaimed graphic novels, both with NBM, "Flower & Fade" about a relationship going wrong and "Joe & Azat" inspired by his tour with the Peace Corps in Turkmenistan. His deceptively simple style is direct and highly expressive.
