Rimsky Rises by William Hammett
Rimsky Rises is a Young Adult novel (ages 13 to 18) that I published with Word Wrangler Publishing (Livingston, Montana) on February 16, 2015. It is available in the Amazon Kindle store or you may access the book on Amazon by clicking the cover in the right column of this blog. The promotional price is $0.99.
The book description is as follows:
Rimsky Mittendorf receives emails from God. Are the messages genuine or the work of a sophisticated computer hacker?
In this Young Adult novel, Rimsky is a high school student whose life is split in two because of his parents' divorce. His troubles are compounded when the teacher he despises most falls madly in love with his father, while his mother seeks to have his uncle--the only cool adult he knows--locked up in a psychiatric hospital. Rimsky believes that his stressful life might just be bearable if he could only utter more than a few syllables to his classmate, the beautiful Sarah Petrovich. That's when emails from the Almighty start to appear in Rimsky's inbox.
Rimsky Rises is a humorous yet penetrating look at a teen's search for meaning in a world in which sane people appear to be outrageously crazy, while crazy people seem to know the truth underlying the absurd, confusing, and often comic reality called life.
Adult novels under my own name (literary and genre fiction) will be published in March, April, and May of 2015. Check back for further information on new books.
