Overview
Human history is a tapestry of stories, woven together across time and space. Billions upon billions of tales to be told. My story is no different to yours really: it is one single thread in the eternal masterpiece, lying insignificantly alongside a plethora of others. If we are honest, most of the time our stories are a little ordinary. But sometimes, every now and then, we stumble upon a chapter that is worth telling.

A true story about one man’s search for glory.

Alex is an ordinary young guy, looking for something to make him extraordinary. Drawn in by the intrigue of adventure, he decides to join the French Foreign Legion. After being posted in French Guiana, South America he soon realises that the Legion is not what he expected it to be and going AWOL in South America plunges him into a spiraling search for elusive glory. Along the way he encounters cultures, underworlds, and the mighty Atlantic Ocean and an answer to his search in ways he would never have dreamed of.

Funding:

Our funding goal of $ 7000.00 will be used to publish the enthralling story which has taken three years to weave together. Alex and the Author have spent endless hours ironing out all the details of this story to ensure the book connects with your sense of adventure.

The funds will be used for the following:

  • Cover design;
  • Proof reading and editing;
  • Layout design;
  • Print; and 
  • Marketing.

We appreciate the support in giving us the ability to share this story with the world.
