This book is part tragedy, part success story, and part lab note-book documenting the psychological activity during a roller coaster of physical and mental transitions. After bouncing from one extreme to the other in numerous facets of life, Axe finds himself learning to cope with his pending death. He survives humble and weak but still alive. As his health slowly returns, he captures observations, thoughts, and memories that help him to understand the world and people around him.

More important are the internal lessons he learns as he creates an improved version of himself who’s healthier, happier, and more appreciative of life’s pleasures. Debauchery of the past becomes temptation of the present, while pure passions like guitars and motorcycles are fully realized in his celebration of freedom and life. This book is above all else a very honest look at human nature through a scarred perspective, and the blunt thoughts are a testament that the intent is not to please everyone. Reading these memoirs will test the reader’s ability to put aside the brain-washing of the world, think independently, and appreciate the sincerity and effort to objectively evaluate and evolve while maintaining internal integrity and beliefs.
