Hailed as an underground classic by a large and devoted following, LEGEND has been compared to such science fiction materpieces as DUNE and THE POSTMAN. As an adventure story, LEGEND is impossible to put down, but it is also more than just a compelling read.

Produktbeschreibung
Hailed as an underground classic by a large and devoted following, LEGEND has been compared to such science fiction materpieces as DUNE and THE POSTMAN. As an adventure story, LEGEND is impossible to put down, but it is also more than just a compelling read. It is a brilliant parable about the mental bondage in which human beings live and how we can overcome it. LEGEND takes place in a decaying city of the future, a city that is devouring itself. The hero and heroine escape life on the streets, only to be trapped between a parasitic government and the Satanic netherworld of an insane cult. The only way for the heroine to triumph is to penetrate what cannot be penetrated. The only way for the hero to survive is to become a god.
Autorenporträt
Barry Maher is a product of four years at the University of Notre Dame, an hour and a half at the Graduate Journalism Program at U.C. Berkeley, and five befuddled weeks at Burger King's Whopper College. In his misspent youth, his non-fiction appeared in perhaps a hundred different publications and, in order to eat, he held nearly that many different jobs. Sometimes he lived on the beach. Not in a house on the beach. On the beach. With the sand and the seagulls. After a sentence with a Fortune 100 company, he started speaking professionally. He told stories to audiences across the country and around the world: his client list a Who's Who of multi-national corporations and large associations. Eventually, that led to the Slightly Off-Kilter syndicated newspaper column. You may have seen Barry on The Today Show, CNN or CNBC and he's been featured in publications ranging from The New York Times, USA Today and The Wall Street Journal to, his persona favorite, Funeral Service Insider. On the downside, Barry's also been incarcerated twice. Once for not making a left hand turn out of a left hand turn lane, and once for aiding and abetting a loiterer. He's deeply repentant.
