From the best-selling author of Courage Under Fire, comes an unforgettable journey into the raw, untamed heart of America's dark underbelly.
The Ballad of Billy Badass follows the life of an enigmatic drifter caught in the relentless currents of fate and violence. Spanning decades, from the sweltering heat of a Michigan summer to the blood-soaked jungles of Vietnam. Delve deep into the psyche of a man who was made by his scars, and whose rebellion against the world only hardens as he moves from small-time hustles to something altogether more dangerous.
As haunting as it is electrifying, The Ballad of Billy Badass captures the spirit of a bygone era-a world of violent redemption, and the raw fight for survival.
Written in a bold, experimental style, The Ballad of Billy Badass is a love letter to the silent anti-heroes of classic cinema. Patrick Sheane Duncan crafts a gripping ode to the renegades of old-those who walked the razor's edge between law and lawlessness.
