NOW UPDATED WITH A NEW EPILOGUE In the summer of 1964, aged twenty, Ray Davies led the Kinks to fame with their number one hit ‘You Really Got Me’. Within months, they were established among the pop elite, swamped by fans and fast becoming renowned for the rioting at their gigs. But Ray’s journey from working-class Muswell Hill to the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame was tumultuous in the extreme, featuring breakdowns, bitter lawsuits, spectacular punch-ups and a ban from entering the USA. His relationship with his brother Dave is surely the most ferocious and abusive in music history. Based on countless interviews conducted over several decades, this richly detailed and revelatory biography presents the most frank and intimate portrait yet of Ray Davies.

Sam Archer's life is about to become a lot more complicated. His girlfriend, Freya Rosetti, has just discovered she has a daughter, which shouldn't even be possible given that she's never been pregnant. And his fiancé, Lily Dodson, is being haunted by an act she committed in self-defense. Not to mention the appearance of an arrogant superhero with a god-complex who just won't take 'no' for an answer, and who is determined to make their lives miserable in any way he can. All the while, they anxiously wait for Sam's supposed friend, Nick Parker, to meet with the shadow organization's contact to try to discover who is responsible for the immortal super's repeated torment over the years. Can Sam sort through the mess unraveling before him, and keep his family safe in the process? Is he willing to forgive those who have wronged him, and maybe gain a few friends along the way? Warning: This book contains adult content that may not be suitable for all audiences, including suggestive adult scenes, slight harem elements, graphic violence, talk about self-harming behavior, and alcohol consumption/drug use. However, this book does not attempt to glorify any of the negative topics mentioned previously, and it has both parts that you may find wholesome as well as parts that may make you cry. Prologue "S-So," the women said after a moment. "Did you find anything?" Freya let go of Lily's face, but immediately grabbed a hold of her and pulled her into a tight hug as she met the woman's gaze. "Unfortunately, no. There aren't any clues to go on." She sighed then, finally letting Lily go. "Sorry," the woman replied. "I wish I could be of more help." Freya shook her head. "It's fine. And as for living with us, that's something we'll have to discuss separately. Having an extra two women in the house permanently is kind of a big deal." "I know we just bought your house," she continued. "But maybe I could sell it, and we could at least live next to you guys? I can pay to have a house built beside Lily's, so then we would be neighbors at least." Freya and Lily exchanged a glance, prompting Lily to speak up. "Maybe," she replied tentatively, turning slightly to meet the woman's gaze. The Complicated Life of an Immortal is a full-length novel: ~ 95,000 words.

Complicated Lives focuses on the lives of sixty-five drug-using girls in the juvenile justice system (living in group homes, a residential treatment center, and a youth correctional facility) who grew up in families characterized by parental drug use, violence, and child maltreatment. Vera Lopez situates girls’ relationships with parents who fail to live up to idealized parenting norms and examines how these relationships change over time, and ultimately contribute to the girls’ future drug use and involvement in the justice system. While Lopez’s subjects express concerns and doubt in their chances for success, Lopez provides an optimistic prescription for reform and improvement of the lives of these young women and presents a number of suggestions ranging from enhanced cultural competency training for all juvenile justice professionals to developing stronger collaborations between youth and adult serving systems and agencies.
