For fans of Ashley Antoinette & JaQuavis Coleman's Cartel series or Sister Soulja's Coldest Winter Ever, King is a must read! The series focuses on the African-American, Asian and Latino ghetto communities and rural experience. Entertained by the cheap thrills of violence and promiscuity that fill the pages of most Urban novels? Then you will be intrigued with the schemes and fantasy of beating the odds in the streets with King. Or maybe you simply want to vicariously experience the life of those who have? Not a fan of street literature? Well, you just may want to study this genre to analyze its connection to Urban mythology and its impact on ghetto communities across the United States. Gangs, drugs, violence, promiscuity, and criminal activity are the norms in this series. A twist on the hustle in the Dirty South, the black rodeo circuit, and Prince Hall Masons, elevate King's father to the top of the Game. One-by-one, Daddy Redd buries his enemies as they attempt to tip at his $tack. Betrayed by his brother's heroin addiction, the Game God eventually claims his life and leaves King without a father. A mere child, he grows up in the shadow of his father's legacy. The streets call and he answers, playing the Game for keeps, with only one thing in mind--Exacting Vengeance! Editor's Note: By QuaitieFirst let me tell you a little something: I had never read any urban fiction prior to this, never even visited that section in a bookstore. However, the opportunity to work as an editor on this project with the author, Mr. Ivan Kilgore, has provided for me an unexpected entertainment "page turner," in a genre of literature which has helped me better appreciate and understand the African American cultural and street experiences, both past and present. I have to caution you though: this book is packed with violence, steamy sex scenes, heartache, and betrayal. Still, you don't want to miss the invaluable story about the central character, King, a young black kid who is struggling to make the right decisions while living, loving, and surviving in many of the wrong circumstances. This urban fiction, written by a Black author, speaks to all genders who enjoy the urban genre, new release collections of erotica, romance, gangsters, gun arsenals, westerns, good guys vs. bad, Native and African American history and more...Bonus: Considering this story is based on true events, when you're in the urban fiction section of your favorite bookstore, grab that "King" off the shelf, and while drooling over the dreamy, hot author you'll find on the book cover, you might want to go hide somewhere while you imagine yourself as Kay-Kay!
