A Burden to the Earth
Michael J. Sullivan writing as Michael A. Mitty


He learned values from Gunsmoke, ethics from Father Knows Best, and his place in the world from Ozzie & Harriet, but his life turned out much different.


A child of the fifties, Elliot Myers believed his parents, his teachers, his priest, and television when they promised him the American dream. Now at forty, and still living in his mother's tiny condominium, he knows they all lied. Embittered by a world that moved ahead and left him behind, Elliot finds one last chance to free himself of forty years of waiting and makes his first, and final, grasp at life.

Set in the early 1990's A Burden to the Earth explores regret over lost innocence, nostalgia for the past, and the cost of dwelling on both.

This books is written by Michael J. Sullivan but is a vast departure from his more commonly known Riyria Revelations and Riyria Chronicle books. As such, he'll be using a pen name to indicate to his readers that genere differences.  Currently the book is in "beta" and we are looking for readers who would like to get a free copy in order to provide pre-release feedback.
