About the Book

Ju'stice is a fast-paced, seductive, yet satirical journey that follows a highly skilled, incredibly beautiful and intelligent, genetically enhanced assassin on her quest to find meaning in life. The modish, beguiling style of the main character, Ju, which means "ten" in Japanese and is pronounced like the French "au jus", is quite unique. When she gets handed an assignment, a "hit" on a former mentor and friend, it takes her on a ride of both conscience and conflict. In her attempts to define justice, truth and beauty, Ju is forced to confront both inner demons of her past and outside villains that threaten her future and the future of those she cares for. There is a thick texture of contemporary pop-culture woven into the most age-old struggles of Who am I? Why am I here? Is there meaning in life? Is there purpose to suffering? Filled with philosophical quotes, an eclectic assortment of weaponry, Ju'stice transports its readers to a not-so-far-away future where contrasting cultures, modern science and ancient faiths clash with personal conscience and political conflicts. Filled with tensions and dichotomies of all sorts, the inner struggles of the endearing characters are as rich, complex and titillating as their outer mêlées.
About the Author: Although I have never met him, my father's cousin, the late, great author, John Updike, was my first real hero. But in my preteen years I was introduced to Stan Lee and the universe of Marvel comics then later Shonen Jump and the world of Japanese manga. The mythology of superheroes seduced me and won my heart. Sometimes the writing left something to be desired, however the adventures, the beauty, strength and abilities of its characters captivated me completely. I was hooked and still am...not sure if that will be construed as a pro or a con. When asked recently to articulate my main philosophy of life I quoted Jodorowsky (upon receiving a half filled glass of water)- "Is it half full or half empty?" So I drank the water. No more problem."
