Outcast - 9781999427504

When his best friend goes missing, a man already haunted by the disappearance of his brother twenty-five years earlier begins to think the elaborate game he's been drawn into is more than just a game. "As a writer and a reader, there is no greater satisfaction than watching the implausible become woven into plausibility by the hands of a master craftsman. Darren Greer's brilliant Outcast is as infectious as a zombie virus, as intriguing as an Alberti code. I finished the last page convinced that the whole book is a code, and that I, like the main character, was being tested. You will feel the same. Will you pass and be chosen by the outcasts, or will you fail and remain one of the herd, as 99% of us do? There's only one way to find out... read Outcast." --William Kowalski, Internationally best-selling, award-winning author of Eddie's Bastard and The Best Polish Resteraunt in Buffallo "Outcast is a smart, quick-moving drama based on the conceit of a game and its fictional content becoming unnervingly real. In his depiction of the city and the central character's insecurities, Greer delivers a Ballardian atmosphere of ordinary landscapes made perverse and unreliable, and of the fatalism of private experience." --Michael Kaan, award-winning author of The Water Beetles "Nietzsche and art students, humour and intrigue collide in this 'existential detective story' about a missing brother. Outcast is alive with Darren Greer's signature wit - a wild ride full of twisted codes and their singular brand of intelligence." --Carol Bruneau, award-winning author of These Good Hands and A Bird on Every Tree
