Handsome. Brilliant. Sociopathic. Dazzing but dangerous. Victorian London had Dorian Gray. Jazz Age New York had Jay Gatsby. Castro Street has Christopher Melendez-Greene, a guy people love to hate, hate to love and find impossible to ignore. When he's not screwing you he's screwing you over, all the while keeping a lookout for his next target of opportunity. No prospective victim is too insignificant to attract his interest and none too big for him to take on, and his escapades range from the most thoughtlessly trivial to calculated and deadly. Set during the years between the beginnings of gay liberation and the early stages of the AIDS epidemic, ICARUS ASCENDING charts Christopher's rise, rise, and still further rise, from misunderstood small town schoolboy to the toast of San Francisco's gay A-list, with stops in college, medical school, and too many beds to count. ICARUS ASCENDING is one part black comedy, one part gay travelogue and one part morality tale. From the author of THE NAVIGATORS, LODESTAR, THE CURRENT, INTERSECTIONS, and VOYAGES.
