"This uplifting, other-worldly parable about loss and despair, struggle and success, has much to offer our time of challenges and possibility. George Mendoza writes from his heart and his own hard lessons in life." Anne Hillerman, New York Times best-selling author.

"A journey into an extraordinary world- both an alternative world and the world of the mind. For seekers of wisdom." JL Powers, author of Broken Circle

After losing a race that he believed would destine him for great things, egocentric Michael's pity party leads to tragedy. Unable to face his own complicity, Michael runs from his fears, and unexpectedly passes through a magical gate into a bizarre world. As Michael passes through one inconceivable test after another, his self-delusion collides with the hard truths of life. Journey of the Spirit Man, Book One of the Spirit Man series, is an exploration of the struggles, limitations, and triumphs of the human spirit.
