Publisher's summary

The Detourist tells the tale of Apenimon, a man down but not out. When Apenimon is tempted by shortcuts to the life he longs to live, he must choose what kind of man he wants to be. Will be take the easy way, or will he walk the long way to permanence?

In the interludes between Apenimon’s story, we take a look at the construction of our elegant universe. The Detourist meanders between quantum physics, the law of attraction, imagination, willpower, and scripture, tying it all together with Jesus Christ.

“I have never had more clarity on my faith than I do right now.” - Mike E.
