The Underdog

Leigh and Gemma are enjoying their honeymoon when the unthinkable happens. They are attacked by three alien creatures intent on ending their lives. But when Leigh is given a second chance to live – even though there are serious strings attached – he vows to avenge his wife. But first, he must complete a mission to restore the balance of power that is threatening to destroy the universe. No pressure! What follows is a heart-pumping adventure through different worlds where Leigh, with the help of various friends, must fight the evil Creations who are infesting Earth with gangs of criminals. Their end game? Total domination! Will Leigh succeed? Will he overcome his self-doubt and his feelings of guilt when good people die in the process? Does he have the determination to persevere when the odds are against him? In this original tale of good versus evil by first-time author, Justin Carpenter, the hero is a classic underdog – and who doesn't love an underdog? With its highly imaginative plot, The Underdog is told with humour and a down-to-earth style that will appeal to young adults and the young-at-heart.
