In war and prison, Aziz knew his place. He was a soldier, a survivor. Thrown into a crumbling world, he moves to Orlando to care for his sick grandfather. 14-year-old Pooky usually charms his way out of trouble, but his wits will only get him so far when the older guys in his neighborhood turn violent. When their paths cross in the worn halls of a rundown apartment complex, the two form an unlikely bond. Initially divided by age, experience, and stubborn pride, they discover a mutual burning desire to restore an antiquated belief in the myth of the male hero.

Aziz, desperate to protect something again, and Pooky, in need of a better perspective than the one his upbringing gave him, inspire each other to revive an ancient archetype. Together, they embark on a journey to restore courage, love, and humanity to their small, fractured corner of the world.

Generations apart but bound by purpose, they struggle together through the trials of the hero's journey, proving that even in a world adrift, the hero's heart still beats.

Empire of Sunsets is a stirring explosion of brotherhood, redemption, and the power of belief to reignite hope in the darkest corners of our lives.
