Tridensphere Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I was browsing through the kindle free ebooks today when I came across a book I thought needed sharing. It's called A Vagrant Story and it's about this small group of homeless people who find a suicide note and decide to stop the man who wrote it from carrying it out. Basically it's a travel/adventure story where they set out across the city to track the man down using clues in the note. As they go along we start finding more about their past and the reasons why they became homeless. Some of it is pretty heart wrencing but it's still pretty fun/funny at the same time. It's strangely humourous for a book which uses suicide in its plot. I don't want to ruin it for anyone. It's still free at the moment. You can take one look at it and know I only clicked on it first because of that brilliant cover. I haven't seen a book cover as good as that in a long time. Covers today usually have something photoshopped onto them http://www.amazon.com/A-Vagrant-Story-ebook/dp/B00BR4MKS8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1363049597&sr=8-2&keywords=a+vagrant+story This is the summary on the site: When four homeless people find a suicide note they vow to save the man who wrote it before he can carry it out. With only until New Year's Eve to track him down they follow clues in the note which lead them on a journey across the city. Having long hidden in the darkness of the gutter, the four must finally return to the world they left behind and inevitably face the demons of their past they've long been running from.They find a city corrupted, over run with turf wars and violence. The people tremble as a serial killer stalks the midnight air. The police appear to have given up hope in catching him. This killer is seemingly unstoppable. Unstoppable, until his path crosses with that of four hapless bums. The last thread of hope lies in each of their hands as their journey to save one man’s life causes them to save many.

Michelle Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 This was only published a few days ago, you found it today, and yet you've already read it. I'm afraid it sounds rather promotional - are you connected to it at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
