In a world waking from a dark age, a young musician finds himself thousands of miles from home, covered in bruises, and falling in love.

And itÕs only downhill from there.

Chronically clueless and incurably na•ve, runaway street performer Osha Oloreben has known his share of hard knocks Ð but none like those heÕs dealt in the city of Valena. Dragged into war and battered by disease, Osha unwittingly trades his life for a fever dream of half-truths and hidden realms. Helped and hindered by a cast of mystics, rebels, and ghosts, he struggles to reclaim his body, his identity, and reality itself Ð before itÕs too late.

With humor and horror in equal measure, ÔFarewell, EverythingÕ delves into the dissolution of a transforming mind. Climate fallout, cultural amnesia, and the enduring legacy of past mistakes set a bleak yet whimsical stage on which healing and self-discovery take on mythic proportions. Stumbling through the stages of grief Ð denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance Ð our unlikely hero braves the surreal landscapes of love, loss, and death, from which no one emerges unchanged.
