O knihe

The 80's gave birth to a war on narcotics that expanded from the White House to the Kremlin. The new underworld would become the lifestyles of the rich and infamous, but everything in the Devil's paradise wasn't always glamorous. "I don't know if it's fair to say that I'm a victim of anything, I'd like to think that I've been able to walk my own path and become the man that I wanted to be. The Game baptized me in a dirty, blood- riddled, explosion and the man the world held responsible for that baptism, found me alive and named me Orion-his warrior son. I never forgot the violence that turned me into a ghost in the first place, but somehow that same violence will give me everything an avaricious heart desires. I'm not greedy, I have no desire for hundreds of millions of dollars and people bowing down at my feet-I only aspire to become Grand Master of this lie we refer to as The Game. Most believe that the explosion snuffed out the heart of a child and created a cold, calculated, fierce beast, and I agree with both pieces of that statement; and so would you if you looked in my eyes. That's because you're looking for my soul, you're searching for a soul in a man without a heart. The game didn't offer me a free ticket into the disturbing charade it calls the underworld, instead death waited just outside the door with a personal invite." The rules of the game are signed in blood and the house always wins. Orion will be raised to become a man, in a world made of gold and violence. He will battle his own mental demons during his baptism into the cold harsh world of black-market logistics, dirty money, murder, and power. With the help of the drug game's best, he will transform from an exceptionally intelligent street-smart child into the deserving heir to the throne. The cost of rising to the top will be the child's soul if he can't recover his demolished heart from the ambers. "Living in a world of privilege and private jets will allow that heart to believe its home. But my heart was silenced when the game extinguished the once brilliant light that was the only love I knew. Now I find myself at the crossroads where being a good son and the next kingpin can no longer coexist."
