The Odyssey of Jasper Blink

Jasper Blink is dying. He's a slave, a rebel, an outlaw. He's a friend, a space explorer, a kingdom crusher, a missionary of a lost religion. A medical prodigy, a hero, a bringer of hope, and the only brother to the devil. He's a hopeless romantic and a surgeons worst nightmare. He's lost in space and lost in his own mind. He's half-god and half-dead, a builder of metaphorical bridges, and afraid of the dark.

Jasper doesn't want any of that, he just wants to survive through the week.
