If you enjoy having your sensibilities tested, please join Callahan and me, the narrator, as we deliver the story of his origin. This story is an artfully unusual satirical medieval fantasy with undertones of dark tragedy that grips reader's attention with offensive quip and brutal violence. It tells the tale of a wayward boy who rises to assassin, then onward to revolutionary and beyond. Beware, this tale is not for the faint of heart and contains adult language, death, gore, and some sexual content. It mocks and makes light of theology, sex, politics, race, and just about any other subject of taboo nature that is supposed to be left unspoken. For those who are intrigued, join us, for we are eager to entertain. For those who would shy from such good luck to ye in what must be a drab and overly sheltered existence.
