AntiHeroes: The Ballad of Mikey May -- Ryan Leone, Hardcover

"Some of the most significant writing of his generation." - Johnny Depp

Delve into darkness and blurred morality with AntiHeroes, a gritty substance abuse and crime novel by Ryan Leone (author of the bestselling, Wasting Talent). In the rotting sprawl of Los Angeles, Gunner, Mikey May, and Collin McFadden are tragically flawed souls entangled in a web of addiction, sex, and violence.

Accused of killing his girlfriend, Mikey is sentenced to prison, becoming a pawn in a dangerous game orchestrated by a prison captain eager to publish Mikey's harrowing story-the Ballad of Mikey May. Their drug-fueled journey leads to horrific revelations about Mikey's past.

Haunted by meth addiction and PTSD, Gunner finds solace in Cindy, a troubled woman with a dark agenda. Struggling with impotence, Gunner discovers an arousing truth-the power of violence, spiraling him into bloody madness.

Meanwhile, Collin, a wealthy man embroiled in scandal, falls into a perilous affair leading him toward a life-changing transformation. Vilified by the press as a racist white man due to his past, Collin must decide where his true path lies.

In a web of manipulation, their paths converge, culminating in a gripping showdown at a Lakers game. Brace yourself for an unapologetic exploration of the human psyche, where heroes are scarce, and dark impulses reign. AntiHeroes rips open the raw depths of human nature, challenging the notion of heroism itself. In a dying world where there are no saviors, everyone is the hero in their own story.
