Kindle friends, look into the harrowing lives of three addicts in today’s featured novel, Some Are Sicker Than Others by Andrew Seaward. It has an impressive 4.7 star rating with 35 reviews. “Seaward not only weaves an exceptionally well-constructed story with wholly credible characters, he offers deeper insights and relates more factual information about the disease of addiction than any other writer to date.” -Grady Harp, Top 10 Amazon Reviewer
A Brief Synopsis of Some Are Sicker Than Others:
THE LIVES OF THREE UTTERLY HOPELESS ADDICTS CONVERGE FOLLOWING AN ACCIDENTAL AND HORRIFIC DEATH.
Monty Miller, a self-destructive, codependent alcoholic, is wracked by an obsession to drink himself to death as punishment for a fatal car accident he didn’t cause.
Dave Bell, a former all-American track star turned washed-up high school volleyball coach, routinely chauffeurs his bus full of teens on a belly full of liquor and head full of crack.
Angie Mallard, a recently divorced housewife with three estranged children, is willing to go to any lengths to restore the family she lost to crystal meth.
All three are court-mandated to a drug & alcohol rehab high in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. There, they learn the universal truth among alcoholics and addicts:
About the Author:
Based on his own personal adventures in addiction and recovery, Andrew’s debut novel, SOME ARE SICKER THAN OTHERS, takes you on a hellish journey inside the diseased mind of the addict. From a codependent alcoholic wracked by an obsession to drink himself to death…to a delusional high school volleyball coach with a dependency on crack…the characters in his novel are not just fiction, they are amalgamations of the people he met on his journey. Tragically flawed yet desperately hopeful, this cast of unlikely heroes will challenge your preconceived notions of what it means to be an addict. Some of you will laugh, some of you will cry, others may see themselves in the characters’ lives. Either way, Andrew thinks you’re going to enjoy the story, because, if there’s one thing an addict isn’t…it’s boring.
What Readers Are Saying about Some Are Sicker Than Others:
“Dark, gritty, compelling…a harrowingly emotional experience that rings true to the very last word.” –Doug Kurtz, acclaimed author of Mosquito
“Honest, direct, and confrontational. This book will lead you on a serious rollercoaster ride of emotions. Mr. Seaward discusses in very explicit details the mental, psychological and physical effects of withdrawal and the various stages of recovery.” -Ashley LaMar, Closed the Cover Book Reviews
“Emotionally raw and harrowingly real, Some Are Sicker than Others is a moving story of redemption. The thoroughly cultivated iced-over setting provides a perfect backdrop for the story; one can easily concoct in one’s mind the snowy, mountainous landscape Seaward paints with his words.” -Amy Jodoin, Portrait of an Artist
