Working in a hospital emergency room as he does, Physician Assistant, graphic artist, and author Len McCawley is surrounded by chaos, blood, destruction and creation, catastrophe, anguish, and, yes, hope, daily. "BARDO BOY," his amazing first novel, portrays a pansexual mystical/philsophical quest of a spiritual seeker with sentences so exquisite the book's essence reminds me of Herman Hesse's "STEPPENWOLF" updated for the 21st century to include vampires, sexy scenes, shocking scenes, astounding scenes, a religion called Wakkism, a villain named Book, a missing lover named Drew, the eternal symbolism of the seagull, and a hero for our troubled times named Bardo Boy, always seeking, seeking, seeking until his cycle of self-discovery is fulfilled. Whether your thing is Sci-Fi or Mysticism or gay lit or just plain great writing, Len McCawley's book BARDO BOY is certain to become a genre-straddling yet category-defying cult favorite!

"...THE WRITING IS FLAT OUT BEAUTIFUL!"- critique from the Online Writers Workshop
