Shane Grey's intense biographical fiction novel based on life from age 18 to age 39. Highlighting his addictions while working multiple jobs before ending up in the medical field, meeting his wife & having kids. This dark, comical, outside view of the world is what sets apart Mr. Grey's story telling from modern author's. His voice is blunt and forward, not wasting pages with useless ranting. Man's Ruin is a modern Urban adventure spanning two decades.
